TE Connectivity 747461-5 D-Sub Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 747461-5 is a 25-position D-Sub receptacle connector with female sockets, right-angle through-hole mounting, and solder termination. This connector is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. The AMPLIMITE HD-20 series connector provides signal-level connectivity in applications requiring 25-position D-Sub configurations with gold-plated contacts and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete TE Connectivity 747461-5 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the AMPLIMITE HD-20 series. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications across the following critical parameters:

• Connector style and type (D-Sub receptacle with female sockets)
• Position count and row configuration (25 positions, 2 rows)
• Shell size and layout (Size 3, DB/B configuration)
• Mounting orientation and method (through-hole, right-angle)
• Termination method (solder)
• Contact material and finish (phosphor bronze with gold flash plating)
• Electrical ratings (6A current, 125V voltage)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C)
• Flange configuration (mating side female screwlock 4-40)
• Flammability compliance (UL94 V-0)

The substitute part 5747461-5 satisfies all these parameters while offering improved product status and regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 5747461-5 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 747461-5 model. This substitution is supported by complete electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence across all critical specifications. The substitute part offers two significant advantages:

Product Status: The 5747461-5 maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support, whereas the 747461-5 is classified as obsolete and subject to discontinuation.

Regulatory Compliance: The 5747461-5 achieves ROHS3 compliance, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions. The original 747461-5 is RoHS non-compliant, which may present procurement and regulatory challenges in applications subject to RoHS directives.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance characteristics, including 6A current rating, 125V voltage rating, and operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. Both parts feature UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and phosphor bronze contacts with gold flash plating. Mechanical compatibility is complete, with identical 25-position, 2-row configuration, right-angle through-hole mounting, and solder termination.

The 5747461-5 is supplied in tray packaging, which differs from the unspecified packaging of the original part. This packaging format is standard for production and procurement workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 747461-5 and 5747461-5 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications, including shell size (Size 3, DB/B), mounting type (through-hole, right-angle), flange configuration (mating side female screwlock 4-40), and backset spacing (0.590" or 14.99mm). Direct substitution in existing PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies is supported.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications: 6A current rating, 125V voltage rating, and -55°C to 105°C operating temperature range. Contact material (phosphor bronze) and finish (gold flash plating) are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The 5747461-5 achieves ROHS3 compliance, indicating conformance to current Restriction of Hazardous Substances directives. The 747461-5 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or procurement policies requiring RoHS compliance, the 5747461-5 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Does the tray packaging of the 5747461-5 affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Tray packaging is a standard distribution format for production environments and does not impact connector performance or installation.

Q: Why is the 747461-5 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active production and support. The 5747461-5 represents the current active equivalent within the AMPLIMITE HD-20 series.

Q: Can the 5747461-5 be used in applications originally designed for the 747461-5?

A: Yes. Complete parameter equivalence across all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications supports direct substitution in all applications originally specified for the 747461-5.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these connectors?

A: No performance differences exist. Both connectors deliver identical electrical performance, mechanical function, and environmental compliance within their specified operating parameters.
