Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 863010LF is determined by alignment with the base product number 863010 and compatibility within the D-Sub connector family. The manufacturer-recommended substitute, 863010A, shares the same base product number and category classification. Both components are governed by identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8538.90.8180) and moisture sensitivity specifications (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

The 863010A qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following criteria:

• Shared base product number (863010)
• Identical product category (D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors)
• Matching regulatory and environmental specifications
• Equivalent moisture sensitivity rating

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 863010A is the manufacturer-designated substitute for the obsolete 863010LF. Selection of this alternative is supported by:

• Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain reliability
• Identical regulatory classification and export control designation
• Equivalent environmental specifications and moisture sensitivity rating
• Shared base product architecture within the Amphenol ICC (FCI) connector portfolio

The RoHS non-compliance status of the 863010A should be evaluated against application requirements and regional regulatory obligations prior to implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 863010LF classified as obsolete? A: The 863010LF has reached end-of-life status within the manufacturer's product portfolio. The 863010A represents the active continuation within the same product family.

Q: What determines compatibility between the 863010LF and 863010A? A: Both components share the base product number 863010 and belong to the D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors category. They maintain identical moisture sensitivity and regulatory classifications, establishing functional equivalence for substitution purposes.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts? A: The 863010LF packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The 863010A is supplied in bulk packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating? A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that these components have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage or handling.

Q: Should RoHS compliance be a factor in selecting between these parts? A: The 863010A is specified as RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS directives or equivalent regional regulations must evaluate this specification against design and market requirements.
