Similar Manufacturer Substitute: Amphenol ICC UE27BC54130 provides equivalent functional parameters with enhanced current rating (1.5A) and board lock feature, representing an active alternative from a different manufacturer.

Parametric Equivalent: Amphenol ICC (FCI) 61729-0010TLF delivers core functional compatibility with matching operating temperature range and mating cycle specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity 292317-4 (Direct Manufacturer Substitute)

The 292317-4 is the primary recommended substitute for the obsolete 787924-1. Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 292317-4 offers active product status with ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements that the original part does not meet. Inventory availability of 1733 units supports production requirements. This substitute is suitable for direct replacement in applications where the original 787924-1 was specified.

Amphenol ICC UE27BC54130 (Similar Manufacturer Substitute)

The UE27BC54130 provides functional equivalence with enhanced performance characteristics. This part delivers a higher current rating of 1.5A per contact compared to the 1A specification of the main part, providing additional design margin. The UE27BC54130 includes a board lock feature and maintains ROHS3 compliance with REACH unaffected status. Operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 85°C is suitable for applications within the -55°C ~ 85°C envelope of the original part. High inventory availability of 8499 units ensures supply continuity. This substitute is appropriate for applications where enhanced current capacity and mechanical retention features are beneficial.

Amphenol ICC (FCI) 61729-0010TLF (Parametric Equivalent)

The 61729-0010TLF serves as a parametric equivalent with matching operating temperature range and mating cycle specifications. Current rating and voltage specifications are not provided for this component. Inventory availability of 683 units is adequate for moderate production volumes. This substitute is suitable for applications where parametric compatibility is the primary selection criterion.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 292317-4 be used as a direct replacement for the 787924-1?

A: Yes. The 292317-4 maintains identical core specifications including connector type, USB 2.0 compliance, 4-position receptacle configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, operating temperature range, current rating, voltage rating, mating cycles, and shielding. Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance (ROHS3 compliant versus non-compliant).

Q: What are the key differences between the UE27BC54130 and the 787924-1?

A: The UE27BC54130 is manufactured by Amphenol ICC rather than TE Connectivity. It provides a higher current rating of 1.5A per contact versus 1A, includes a board lock feature, and operates across a narrower temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C versus -55°C ~ 85°C). All other core specifications including connector type, USB 2.0 compliance, mounting configuration, and shielding are equivalent. The UE27BC54130 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitute parts?

A: Yes. The 292317-4 is supplied in tray packaging, the UE27BC54130 is supplied in tray packaging, and the 61729-0010TLF is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection should align with assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation color difference in the 61729-0010TLF?

A: The 61729-0010TLF features white insulation compared to black insulation in the other parts. This is a cosmetic difference that does not affect electrical or mechanical function. Selection should be based on application requirements and visual identification needs.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best compliance profile?

A: Both the TE Connectivity 292317-4 and Amphenol ICC UE27BC54130 are ROHS3 compliant with active product status. The UE27BC54130 additionally carries REACH unaffected status. The 292317-4 is the direct manufacturer equivalent, while the UE27BC54130 represents an alternative from a different manufacturer with enhanced current capacity.

Q: Is the operating temperature range of the UE27BC54130 sufficient for applications requiring -55°C operation?

A: The UE27BC54130 operates from -40°C to 85°C, which does not extend to the -55°C lower limit of the original 787924-1. Applications requiring operation below -40°C should use either the 292317-4 or 61729-0010TLF, both of which support -55°C operation.

Q: What inventory considerations should guide part selection?

A: The UE27BC54130 offers the highest inventory availability at 8499 units, followed by the 292317-4 at 1733 units and the 61729-0010TLF at 683 units. For applications with high-volume production requirements, the UE27BC54130 provides the most robust supply position. For direct replacement with TE Connectivity components, the 292317-4 offers adequate availability.
