Amphenol ICC 65863-269 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65863-269 is an active rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This shrouded 26-position connector with 2.54mm pitch serves board-to-cable/wire interconnection requirements in the Quickie™ series. The part is currently in active production status with 1052 units available in inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the primary part becomes unavailable or when design requirements permit alternative manufacturers.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 65863-269 is determined by strict alignment of core electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish substitution validity:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (26)
• Number of rows (2)
• Pitch - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Row spacing - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Contact shape (Square)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 499206-6 satisfies all critical matching parameters, establishing it as a valid substitute for the Amphenol ICC 65863-269 in applications where these core specifications are required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol ICC 65863-269 and TE Connectivity 499206-6 maintain active product status with current manufacturing support. Selection between these parts is based on availability and application-specific requirements:

Amphenol ICC 65863-269 is the primary specification. Use this part when the Quickie™ series is explicitly required or when the blue insulation color is a design requirement.

TE Connectivity 499206-6 serves as a direct substitute when the Amphenol part is unavailable. This part provides equivalent electrical and mechanical performance with the following distinctions: AMP-Latch series designation, black insulation color, extended fastening hooks, and specified operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C) with current and voltage ratings (1A at 250VAC). Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and identical contact finish specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 499206-6 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 65863-269?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical core specifications: 26-position, 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole solder termination, shrouded 4-wall design, and square male pin contacts. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and equivalent contact finish specifications.

Q: What are the physical differences between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 499206-6 features extended fastening hooks (Long variant), black insulation versus blue, and a slightly different overall contact length (0.639" vs. unspecified for the original). Mating contact length differs marginally (0.240" vs. 0.230"), and post contact length varies (0.110" vs. 0.105"). These dimensional variations remain within standard connector tolerance ranges for this pitch class.

Q: Are there compatibility concerns with PCB footprints?

A: No. Both connectors use identical 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing and through-hole mounting, ensuring compatibility with standard 0.100" grid PCB layouts. The shrouded 4-wall configuration is identical on both parts.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature specification on the TE part?

A: The TE Connectivity 499206-6 specifies an operating range of -65°C ~ 105°C. The Amphenol ICC 65863-269 does not provide an operating temperature specification in the available data. Applications requiring explicit temperature range documentation should reference the TE part specification.

Q: Do both parts have the same RoHS compliance status?

A: No. The Amphenol ICC 65863-269 is RoHS non-compliant. The TE Connectivity 499206-6 has RoHS status listed as "Not applicable" and is REACH Affected. Applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulations should verify compliance requirements against the specific part selected.

Q: What is the difference in contact finish between these parts?

A: Both maintain 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold or gold-variant mating contact finish. The Amphenol part specifies "Gold or Gold, GXT™" while the TE part specifies "Gold or Gold-Palladium." The TE part additionally includes tin-lead post finish (100.0µin / 2.54µm), whereas the Amphenol post finish is not specified.
