AFD54-14-5PN Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AFD54-14-5PN is a 5-position circular connector receptacle with male pins manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. This component is designed for panel mount applications with bayonet lock fastening and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 200°C. The connector features crimp termination, gold-plated mating contacts, and aluminum shell construction with nickel finish.

This part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing system support and procurement. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility with the 5-position, 14-5 shell size configuration and panel mount bulkhead installation requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AFD54-14-5PN is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Position Count: 5 positions (fixed requirement)
• Shell Size Configuration: 14-5 insert size (fixed requirement)
• Mounting Architecture: Panel mount with bulkhead front side nut (fixed requirement)
• Fastening Mechanism: Bayonet lock (fixed requirement)
• Termination Method: Crimp contacts (fixed requirement)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 200°C (fixed requirement)
• Ingress Protection: Environment resistant (fixed requirement)

The substitute parts PV74L14-5PL and PV74W14-5PL, manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC, satisfy all critical substitution criteria. Both parts are receptacle housings designed for male pins with identical shell size, position count, mounting configuration, and operating temperature specifications. The primary differences between substitutes relate to shell finish and housing color, which do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PV74L14-5PL and PV74W14-5PL are active products from ITT Cannon, LLC, providing direct substitution for the discontinued AFD54-14-5PN. Selection between the two substitute options depends on application-specific requirements related to shell finish and environmental exposure.

PV74L14-5PL features electroless nickel finish on the aluminum alloy shell with silver housing color. This finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and aerospace applications.

PV74W14-5PL features chromate over cadmium finish on the aluminum alloy shell with olive drab housing color. This finish is specified for military applications requiring enhanced corrosion protection in harsh environments.

Both substitutes maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original AFD54-14-5PN across all critical parameters: 5-position configuration, 14-5 shell size, panel mount bulkhead installation, bayonet lock fastening, crimp termination, and -55°C to 200°C operating temperature range. Both parts carry identical compliance certifications (RoHS non-compliant, EAR99, MSL 1).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PV74L14-5PL and PV74W14-5PL be used interchangeably with AFD54-14-5PN?

A: Both ITT Cannon parts are direct substitutes for the discontinued TE Connectivity part. They share identical shell size (14-5), position count (5), mounting configuration (panel mount bulkhead), fastening mechanism (bayonet lock), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 200°C). Selection between the two ITT Cannon options depends on finish requirements for your specific application environment.

Q: What is the difference between PV74L14-5PL and PV74W14-5PL?

A: The primary differences are shell finish and housing color. PV74L14-5PL uses electroless nickel finish with silver color, while PV74W14-5PL uses chromate over cadmium finish with olive drab color. Both provide environment-resistant protection and are suitable for their respective application domains.

Q: Are contacts included with the substitute parts?

A: No. Both PV74L14-5PL and PV74W14-5PL are receptacle housings supplied without contacts. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing. This is consistent with the housing-only nature of these components.

Q: Do the substitute parts support the same crimp contact specifications?

A: Both substitute parts support crimp termination with contact size 16. Ensure that replacement contacts are compatible with this contact size specification and the 5-position insert configuration.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: All three parts (AFD54-14-5PN, PV74L14-5PL, and PV74W14-5PL) share identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant, ECCN EAR99, and MSL 1 (Unlimited). No compliance differences exist between the original and substitute options.

Q: Which substitute should I select for military applications?

A: PV74W14-5PL is specified for military applications with its chromate over cadmium finish and olive drab color, providing enhanced corrosion protection in harsh military environments. PV74L14-5PL is suitable for general industrial and aerospace applications.
