Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitute parts for the 917686-9 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:
Primary Substitution Criteria:
- Connector type (Plug)
- Number of positions (2)
- Pitch specification (0.098" / 2.50mm)
- Contact type (Female Socket)
- Number of rows (1)
- Mounting type (Free Hanging / In-Line)
- Contact termination method (Crimp)
- Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
- Insulation material (Polyamide PA66 / Nylon 6/6)
Secondary Variation Parameters:
- Housing color (Black, Natural, White)
- Operating temperature range
- Manufacturer source
The substitute parts 5-917686-1, 917686-1, and SYP-02TV-1 maintain all primary substitution criteria. Variations in housing color and operating temperature ranges represent design flexibility within the same functional connector class and do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability for standard applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
TE Connectivity 917686-9 (Black Housing) Primary selection for applications requiring black housing color and extended operating temperature range to 105°C. All regulatory compliance certifications are met. Suitable for standard industrial signal connector applications.
TE Connectivity 5-917686-1 (Natural Housing) Direct TE Connectivity equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications to 917686-9. Natural housing color provides alternative aesthetic option. Maintains full operating temperature range to 105°C. Recommended for applications where housing color does not impact assembly or identification requirements.
TE Connectivity 917686-1 (Natural Housing) Direct TE Connectivity equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications to 917686-9. Natural housing color provides alternative aesthetic option. Maintains full operating temperature range to 105°C. Highest inventory availability among TE Connectivity options.
JST Sales America SYP-02TV-1 (White Housing) Cross-manufacturer equivalent from JST Sales America Inc. Maintains all critical connector specifications including 2-position, 2.50mm pitch, crimp termination, and locking ramp fastening. Operating temperature range is -25°C ~ 85°C, which is narrower than the TE Connectivity options. Suitable for applications operating within this temperature specification. White housing color provides distinct visual identification. RoHS compliant and MSL 1 rated.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can 917686-1 and 5-917686-1 be used interchangeably with 917686-9?
A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, pitch, contact type, termination method, and fastening type. The primary difference is housing color (Natural versus Black). Both support the full operating temperature range of -30°C to 105°C.
Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity parts and the JST SYP-02TV-1?
A: The JST SYP-02TV-1 maintains all critical connector specifications but operates within a narrower temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C versus -30°C ~ 105°C). Housing color is White instead of Black or Natural. Both are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 rating. Selection depends on application temperature requirements and housing color requirements.
Q: Does housing color affect electrical performance?
A: Housing color is a cosmetic and identification parameter only. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance characteristics. Color selection is based on application requirements, assembly identification, or aesthetic specifications.
Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?
A: No. All parts in this comparison are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately.
Q: What is the significance of the 2.50mm pitch specification?
A: The 0.098" (2.50mm) pitch is the center-to-center distance between connector positions. This specification must remain constant for mechanical and electrical compatibility. All substitute parts maintain this pitch specification.
Q: Can the SYP-02TV-1 be used in applications requiring -30°C operation?
A: No. The SYP-02TV-1 operating temperature range begins at -25°C. Applications requiring operation at -30°C must use TE Connectivity parts 917686-9, 5-917686-1, or 917686-1.
Q: What does "Contacts Not Included" mean for component procurement?
A: These part numbers reference connector housings only. The female socket contacts must be procured separately using compatible contact part numbers designed for 2.50mm pitch Signal Double Lock series connectors.
