Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ACT96MC35SA is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Number of Positions: 22
• Shell Size - Insert: 13-35
• Connector Type: Plug with Female Sockets
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Threaded
• Orientation: A
• Shielding: Shielded
• Operating Temperature Range: -65°C ~ 200°C
• Series Compliance: MIL-DTL-38999 Series III

The substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring physical and functional compatibility with systems designed for the ACT96MC35SA. All substitute parts are classified as circular connectors within the MIL-DTL-38999 specification family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CTVS06RF-13-35SA-LC (Amphenol Aerospace Operations)

This substitute maintains full compatibility with the ACT96MC35SA across all specified critical parameters: 22 positions, shell size 13-35, free hanging in-line mounting, threaded fastening, orientation A, and shielded configuration. Operating temperature range of -65°C to 200°C matches the original specification. The part is currently active in production with 893 units in stock. ROHS3 compliance status provides regulatory advantage for new system designs, though this represents a change from the original RoHS non-compliant status. MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) is equivalent to the original part.

D38999/26WC35SA (Glenair)

This substitute provides the highest inventory availability at 6100 units in stock and maintains the critical 22-position, 13-35 shell size configuration. The part is active in production. While specific mounting type and fastening details are not provided in the available data, the part number designation within the D38999 series indicates MIL-DTL-38999 compliance. MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) is equivalent to the original part.

D38999/26FC35SA (Glenair)

This substitute maintains 22-position, 13-35 shell size specifications with 879 units in stock and active production status. MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) is equivalent to the original part. The part number designation indicates MIL-DTL-38999 series compliance.

CTVS06RF-13-35SA (Amphenol Aerospace Operations)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines whether a part can substitute for the ACT96MC35SA?

A: Substitution is determined by matching critical parameters: 22 positions, shell size 13-35, plug connector type with female sockets, free hanging in-line mounting, crimp termination, threaded fastening, orientation A, shielded configuration, and operating temperature range of -65°C to 200°C. All listed substitute parts meet these core requirements.

Q: Why is the ACT96MC35SA discontinued?

A: The ACT96MC35SA is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. The substitute parts listed are all currently active in production, providing ongoing availability for system support and new procurement requirements.

Q: Are the substitute parts compatible with existing ACT96MC35SA installations?

A: The substitute parts maintain the same 22-position, 13-35 shell size, and threaded fastening specifications, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility with systems designed for the ACT96MC35SA.

Q: What is the difference between CTVS06RF-13-35SA and CTVS06RF-13-35SA-LC?

A: CTVS06RF-13-35SA-LC includes a self-locking coupling nut feature and is specified as a plug housing for female sockets. CTVS06RF-13-35SA is designated as a plug. Both maintain the 22-position, 13-35 shell size configuration. CTVS06RF-13-35SA-LC provides additional specification detail including operating temperature range of -65°C to 200°C and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?
