Number of Contacts: 8 positions
Gender: Receptacle
Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
Mounting Feature: Horizontal
Termination: Solder
Number of Ports: 2
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 85°C

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: TE Connectivity 5787745-1

The 5787745-1 is the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 787617-7. This part maintains identical form factor, mounting configuration, and electrical specifications while achieving ROHS3 compliance. The USB 2.0 specification designation indicates enhanced protocol support without modification to the physical connector interface. Inventory availability of 1437 pieces supports immediate procurement requirements.

Secondary Recommendations: TE Connectivity 292323 Series (292323-1, 292323-2, 292323-4, 292323-5)

The 292323 series represents parametric equivalents with full electrical and mechanical compatibility. These parts are available in multiple variants with active product status and RoHS compliance. The 292323-1 and 292323-5 variants are packaged in trays, while 292323-2 and 292323-4 are supplied in standard packaging. All variants support USB 2.0 specification and maintain the -55°C to 85°C operating temperature range. Insulation color variation in 292323-3 (Natural) should be evaluated for application-specific requirements.

Tertiary Recommendation: TE Connectivity 1-1734084-1 and 1734084-2

These parametric equivalents provide active product status with RoHS compliance. Electrical specifications for current rating, voltage, and mating cycles are not specified in available documentation. These parts are suitable for applications where detailed electrical parameter documentation is available through alternative sources or where specifications align with the primary recommendations.

Alternative Manufacturer Option: Molex 0672983090 and 0672983091

The Molex Series 67298 connectors (0672983090 and 0672983091) provide parametric equivalence with enhanced current rating of 1.5A per contact. Operating temperature range is restricted to 0°C to 50°C, which represents a narrower specification than the TE Connectivity 787617-7. Voltage rating is specified as 30VDC rather than 30VAC. These parts are suitable for applications operating within the reduced temperature range and where the higher current capacity provides design margin. Both variants achieve ROHS3 compliance and maintain unlimited moisture sensitivity level.

Compliance Considerations:

The original 787617-7 is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitute parts achieve either RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant status, supporting transition to current regulatory requirements. REACH status varies across substitute options; TE Connectivity parts 5787745-1 and 292323 series show REACH Unaffected or Vendor Undefined status, while Molex parts are REACH Unaffected.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 5787745-1 directly replace the obsolete 787617-7 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5787745-1 maintains identical connector type (USB-A stacked receptacle), contact count (8 positions), mounting configuration (through-hole right-angle horizontal), and electrical ratings (1A per contact, 30VAC, 1500 mating cycles). The USB 2.0 specification designation indicates protocol enhancement without physical interface modification. All solder termination and board lock features are preserved.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity 292323 series variants?

A: The 292323 series consists of five variants (292323-1 through 292323-5) that share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Primary differences are packaging format (tray versus standard) and insulation color (black versus natural in 292323-3). All variants support USB 2.0 specification, operate across -55°C to 85°C, and maintain 1A per contact current rating with 1500 mating cycles. Selection between variants depends on packaging requirements and insulation color compatibility with application documentation.

Q: Are the Molex 0672983090 and 0672983091 connectors suitable for all applications using the 787617-7?

A: The Molex connectors provide parametric equivalence with identical form factor and mounting configuration. However, operating temperature range is restricted to 0°C to 50°C compared to the 787617-7 specification of -55°C to 85°C. Voltage rating is specified as 30VDC rather than 30VAC. Current rating is enhanced at 1.5A per contact. These parts are suitable only for applications operating within the 0°C to 50°C temperature window and where DC voltage operation is specified.

Q: What is the significance of the USB 2.0 specification designation on the 5787745-1 and 292323 series?

A: The USB 2.0 specification designation indicates that these connectors meet USB 2.0 protocol requirements. This represents an enhancement over the base 787617-7 specification while maintaining full backward compatibility with the physical connector interface. The USB 2.0 designation does not modify electrical ratings, mounting configuration, or contact count. Applications using the 787617-7 can transition to USB 2.0 specified parts without design modification.

Q: How do shielding specifications affect connector selection?

A: The 787617-7 is specified as shielded. All recommended substitute parts maintain shielding except the 5787745-1, which lists shielding as not specified. For applications requiring electromagnetic interference protection, the 292323 series, 1-1734084-1, 1734084-2, and Molex parts (0672983090, 0672983091) provide confirmed shielded construction. The 5787745-1 should be evaluated against application EMI requirements before selection.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute parts?

A: TE Connectivity 5787745-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. The 292323 series offers multiple packaging options: 292323-1 and 292323-5 are supplied in trays, while 292323-2, 292323-3, and 292323-4 are supplied in standard packaging. The 1-1734084-1 and 1734084-2 packaging format is not specified. Molex parts (0672983090, 0672983091) are supplied in trays. Packaging selection should align with procurement and assembly process requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: All recommended substitute parts achieve RoHS compliance. The 5787745-1 and 292323-1 are ROHS3 Compliant. The 1-1734084-1 and 1734084-2 are RoHS Compliant. The 292323-2, 292323-3, 292323-4, and 292323-5 are RoHS Compliant. The Molex parts (0672983090, 0672983091) are ROHS3 Compliant. The original 787617-7 is RoHS non-compliant, making transition to any substitute part a compliance improvement.

Q: What contact finish options are available?

A: The 787617-7 specifies gold contact finish. The 5787745-1 and 292323 series offer gold or gold-palladium contact finish options. The 1-1734084-1, 1734084-2, and Molex parts (0672983090, 0672983091) specify gold contact finish. Contact finish selection should be evaluated against application requirements for corrosion resistance and electrical performance.
