Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ACT94MD15SN-3025 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• 15-position configuration with 15-15 shell size
• Receptacle connector type with female sockets
• Panel mount with bulkhead front-side nut fastening
• Crimp termination method
• Shielded construction
• MIL-DTL-38999 Series III compliance
• Composite shell material
• Gold contact finish for mating surfaces
• Normal (N) orientation

Secondary Considerations:

• Operating temperature range (minimum -65°C, maximum 200°C or higher)
• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)
• ECCN and HTSUS classifications

The substitute parts identified maintain these core parameters while operating within acceptable thermal and environmental specifications for aerospace and military applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CTV07RW-15-15JN is the primary equivalent substitute for the ACT94MD15SN-3025. This part maintains full functional and mechanical compatibility across all critical parameters: 15-position configuration, female socket receptacle, panel mount bulkhead fastening, crimp termination, composite shell with gold contact finish, and MIL-DTL-38999 Series III compliance. The CTV07RW-15-15JN is currently active in production, ensuring supply chain availability. The operating temperature range of -65°C to 175°C covers the majority of aerospace and military applications, with the exception of applications requiring operation above 175°C.

CTV07RW-15-15B and CTV07RW-15-15JN-LC are receptacle housing alternatives suitable for applications where contacts are supplied separately or integrated through alternative assembly methods. These parts are classified as receptacle housings rather than complete receptacles with female sockets, and contact finish specifications are not provided. These options are appropriate only when contact integration is managed through separate procurement or assembly processes.

All substitute parts maintain RoHS non-compliant status consistent with the original part, ensuring regulatory alignment for aerospace and military applications where RoHS exemptions apply.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CTV07RW-15-15JN directly replace the ACT94MD15SN-3025 in existing assemblies?

A: The CTV07RW-15-15JN maintains mechanical and functional compatibility across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, termination method, and shielding. Direct substitution is supported for applications operating within the -65°C to 175°C temperature range.

Q: What is the difference between CTV07RW-15-15JN and CTV07RW-15-15B?

A: The CTV07RW-15-15JN is a complete receptacle with female sockets and gold contact finish. The CTV07RW-15-15B is a receptacle housing without integrated contacts; contacts must be supplied separately. Selection depends on whether contacts are procured as part of the connector assembly or through independent sourcing.

Q: Does the operating temperature difference between the main part and substitutes affect compatibility?

A: The ACT94MD15SN-3025 operates to 200°C, while substitute parts operate to 175°C. For applications requiring operation above 175°C, the substitute parts are not suitable. For applications within the 175°C maximum, substitutes are fully compatible.

Q: Are all substitute parts currently available?

A: Yes. The CTV07RW-15-15JN, CTV07RW-15-15B, and CTV07RW-15-15JN-LC are all listed with active product status and current inventory availability.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish specification?

A: The ACT94MD15SN-3025 and CTV07RW-15-15JN both specify gold contact finish for mating surfaces, ensuring consistent electrical performance and corrosion resistance. The CTV07RW-15-15B and CTV07RW-15-15JN-LC do not include contact finish specifications because they are supplied as housings without integrated contacts.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: All parts maintain identical RoHS non-compliant status, MSL 1 rating, ECCN EAR99 classification, and MIL-DTL-38999 Series III compliance. No compliance barriers exist for substitution.
