Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Amphenol ICC 90512-003LF qualifies as a direct substitute for the 69254-004 based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

  • Identical connector type (Jack), position count (6p4c), and Category 3 rating
  • Matching contact finish (Gold) and finish thickness (5.00µin)
  • Identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 70°C)

Mechanical Compatibility:

  • Identical mounting type (Through Hole) and orientation (Vertical)
  • Matching termination method (Solder)
  • Identical shielding configuration (Unshielded)
  • User selectable tab direction maintained
  • Equivalent moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

Product Status Advantage:

  • 90512-003LF is classified as Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability
  • 69254-004 is Obsolete, necessitating transition to the active equivalent

The 90512 series represents the current production line for this connector family and maintains full functional and physical interchangeability with the legacy 69254 series.
