TE Connectivity 747539-1 D-Sub Receptacle Housing Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 747539-1 is a D-Sub receptacle housing designed for 15-position female contact applications within the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series. This component functions as the shell assembly for D-shaped connectors, providing the mechanical structure and shielding necessary for signal-level interconnections in free-hanging inline configurations.

The 747539-1 carries an obsolete product status, indicating discontinuation from active manufacturing. Identification of functionally equivalent substitute components is necessary to support ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design requirements where this connector type remains specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for D-Sub receptacle housings is determined by strict equivalence across mechanical and electrical parameters. The following criteria establish functional interchangeability:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector style (D-Sub)
• Connector type (Receptacle for Female Contacts)
• Position count (15 positions)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Shell size and layout (Size 2, DA/A configuration)
• Contact type classification (Signal)
• Mounting method (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Flange design (Unthreaded housing/shell)
• Shielding requirement (Shielded)
• Shell material and finish (Steel, Tin Plated)
• Dielectric composition (Polyamide/Nylon, Glass Filled)

The substitute part 5747539-1 maintains complete alignment with all specified parameters, confirming direct functional equivalence within the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 5747539-1 serves as the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 747539-1 within the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 connector series. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical substitution parameters.

Product Status Consideration: The 747539-1 is classified as obsolete, while the 5747539-1 maintains active product status. This distinction reflects ongoing manufacturing availability and supply chain continuity.

Regulatory Compliance: The 5747539-1 carries RoHS Compliant certification and REACH Unaffected status, whereas the 747539-1 is RoHS non-compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. Applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulatory requirements benefit from substitution to the 5747539-1.

Inventory and Availability: Both components are available in stock. The 5747539-1 is supplied in bulk packaging format.

Selection between these parts depends on regulatory requirements, supply chain strategy, and application compliance mandates. The 5747539-1 is the preferred choice for new designs and applications requiring regulatory compliance documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 747539-1 and 5747539-1 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical specifications including shell size (Size 2, DA/A), mounting configuration (free hanging, in-line), flange design (unthreaded housing), and material composition (steel with tin plating). They are directly interchangeable in mechanical applications.

Q: Can the 5747539-1 replace the 747539-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 5747539-1 maintains complete parameter equivalence with the 747539-1 across all functional specifications. Existing designs utilizing the 747539-1 can transition to the 5747539-1 without modification.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: The 747539-1 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The 5747539-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect functional performance or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the 747539-1 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part has been discontinued from active manufacturing. The 5747539-1 represents the current active equivalent within the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect compatibility?

A: RoHS compliance status does not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility between the two parts. The difference reflects regulatory manufacturing standards. Applications requiring RoHS-compliant components should specify the 5747539-1.

Q: Are contacts included with these housings?

A: No. Both the 747539-1 and 5747539-1 are housing assemblies only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with either component.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these components?

A: Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Can these housings be used for applications other than signal-level connections?

A: These components are specified for signal-level contact applications. Use for power or high-current applications requires verification against the specific application requirements and contact specifications.
