Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 787254-1 is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part 5796055-1 qualifies as a direct equivalent based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters:

• Identical connector type (Receptacle)
• Identical position count (68 positions)
• Identical row configuration (2 rows)
• Identical contact finish specification (Gold, 30.0µin thickness)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Identical mounting configuration (Panel Mount, Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Identical termination method (Solder)
• Identical connector style (Outer Shroud Contacts)
• Identical series designation (CHAMP .031)
• Identical flange feature (Housing/Shell M2.6)

Functional Features:

• Identical feature set (Board Guide, Board Lock, Shielded)
• Identical moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)

The substitute part maintains full functional and mechanical compatibility with the original specification while offering improved product status and compliance certifications.
