Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 71607-309 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Number of positions (9)
• Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Mounting configuration (Surface Mount, Right Angle)
• Board-to-board style
• Contact finish on mating surface (Gold)
• Solder termination
• Push-pull fastening mechanism
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The substitute part 71607-309LF maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original specification while offering improved component availability and updated compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 71607-309LF is the direct substitute for the obsolete 71607-309. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance.

The 71607-309LF offers the following advantages:

• Active product status with ongoing manufacturer support
• RoHS Compliant designation, meeting current environmental regulations
• Identical connector geometry, contact configuration, and termination method
• Same series designation (Dubox™) ensuring design continuity
• Equivalent MSL rating and ECCN classification

For new designs or component replenishment, the 71607-309LF is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems currently using the 71607-309, direct substitution is electrically and mechanically valid.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 71607-309 and 71607-309LF mechanically interchangeable?
