Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the Amphenol ICC 72309 series is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: USB-A (USB TYPE-A), Stacked
• Number of Contacts: 8
• Gender: Receptacle
• Specifications: USB 2.0
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Mounting Feature: Horizontal
• Number of Ports: 2
• Current Rating: 1.5A per Contact
• Mating Cycles: 1500
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 85°C
• Contact Finish: Gold, GXT™
• Shell/Shielding Material: Copper Alloy
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute parts 72309-7014BLF, 72309-8014BLF, and 72309-8034BLF maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations exist only in insulation color (Black vs. White) and regional compliance certifications (REACH status). These differences do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where insulation color is not a design constraint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four part numbers are active products with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between them is based on the following factors:

Insulation Color Requirement: The 72309-7013BPLF and 72309-7014BLF feature black insulation, while 72309-8014BLF and 72309-8034BLF feature white insulation. Choose based on PCB assembly color coding or design specifications.

Compliance Certification: The 72309-7014BLF is designated as REACH Unaffected, suitable for applications with strict European Union chemical compliance requirements. The 72309-8014BLF and 72309-8034BLF are REACH Affected and require compliance documentation for EU markets.

Inventory Availability: The 72309-8034BLF offers the highest stock level (11,123 pcs), followed by 72309-8014BLF (5,124 pcs), 72309-7014BLF (4,048 pcs), and 72309-7013BPLF (1,115 pcs). Availability should be considered for production volume and lead time requirements.

Product Status: All parts maintain active production status with no obsolescence risk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute 72309-7013BPLF with 72309-8014BLF in my design?

A: Yes, provided insulation color is not a design constraint. The 72309-8014BLF features white insulation instead of black. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, including current rating, mating cycles, operating temperature range, and contact finish.

Q: What is the difference between REACH Unaffected and REACH Affected designations?

A: REACH Unaffected parts (72309-7014BLF) comply with EU chemical regulations without requiring additional substance documentation. REACH Affected parts (72309-8014BLF, 72309-8034BLF) require compliance verification for EU market distribution. Selection depends on your supply chain and regulatory requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts rated for the same current and mating cycles?

A: Yes. All four part numbers are rated for 1.5A per contact and 1500 mating cycles. They are electrically and mechanically equivalent within the 72309 series.

Q: Does insulation color affect electrical performance?

A: No. Insulation color is a visual identifier only and does not affect electrical performance, impedance, or signal integrity. Selection is based on assembly documentation or design specifications.

Q: Which part should I choose for highest inventory availability?

A: The 72309-8034BLF offers the largest stock quantity (11,123 pcs). If white insulation is acceptable for your application, this part provides the best availability for high-volume production.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All four part numbers are RoHS Compliant and suitable for applications requiring lead-free assembly and hazardous substance restrictions.
