Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 with the 3M N2564-5002-RB is based on alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Identical connector type (Header) and contact type (Male Pin)
• Matching position count (64 positions) and row configuration (2 rows)
• Identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm) and row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Equivalent mounting method (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Matching shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Identical termination method (Solder)
• Equivalent contact finish on mating surface (Gold at 30.0µin / 0.76µm)
• Full position loading in both parts
• Matching compliance status (RoHS Compliant, MSL 1)

The 3M N2564-5002-RB substitute part maintains functional and dimensional compatibility with the original TE Connectivity specification, enabling direct replacement in applications requiring 64-position, 2.54mm-pitch rectangular connectors with right-angle through-hole mounting.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 and the 3M N2564-5002-RB are Active product status connectors with full RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions. Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence for export and tariff purposes.

The substitute 3M N2564-5002-RB provides additional technical documentation including operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), material flammability certification (UL94 V-0), and current rating (1.75A), which are not specified for the original TE Connectivity part. The 3M part features a Push-Pull fastening mechanism, whereas the original part does not specify a fastening type.

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements for fastening mechanism, operating temperature range, and current handling capacity. Both parts maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical interfaces for 64-position, 2.54mm-pitch rectangular connector applications with right-angle through-hole mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3M N2564-5002-RB directly replace the TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (64), row configuration (2 rows), mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle), shrouding (Shrouded - 4 Wall), and contact finish specifications (Gold at 30.0µin / 0.76µm). The connectors are mechanically and electrically compatible for board-to-cable and board-to-board applications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two connector models?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer identity (TE Connectivity versus 3M) and series designation (AMP-Latch versus 2500). The 3M part includes documented specifications for operating temperature (-55°C ~ 105°C), material flammability (UL94 V-0), current rating (1.75A), and fastening type (Push-Pull), which are not specified for the TE Connectivity part. Both parts maintain equivalent compliance status and core electrical-mechanical parameters.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 packaging is not specified in the available data. The 3M N2564-5002-RB is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed with the supplier based on application requirements and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 and 3M N2564-5002-RB are RoHS Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Both carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications. The 3M part includes additional UL94 V-0 flammability certification.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and row spacing specification?

A: The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch defines the center-to-center distance between adjacent contacts within a row, while the 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing defines the distance between the two rows. These parameters are critical for PCB footprint design and mating connector compatibility. Both parts maintain identical pitch and row spacing, ensuring footprint compatibility.

Q: How does the Push-Pull fastening mechanism on the 3M part affect compatibility?

A: The 3M N2564-5002-RB includes a Push-Pull fastening type, which provides a mechanical locking feature for mated connector pairs. The TE Connectivity part does not specify a fastening type. This difference does not affect electrical or mechanical mating compatibility but may influence connector retention and disconnection force characteristics in the application.

Q: Are the contact materials and insulation materials equivalent between the two parts?

A: The TE Connectivity part does not specify contact material or insulation material. The 3M N2564-5002-RB uses Copper Alloy contacts with Polycyclohexylenedimethylene Terephthalate (PCT), Polyester, and Glass Filled insulation material. Both parts feature gold-plated mating contacts at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness and black insulation color.

Q: What inventory considerations should be evaluated when selecting between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 6-827746-4 has 922 pieces in stock, while the 3M N2564-5002-RB has 2,386 pieces in stock. Inventory availability may influence lead time and supply chain planning for production requirements.
