Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0471554001 be used as a direct replacement for the Assmann WSW A-SATA/7-M-BO-C-02-03-R?

A: Yes. Both connectors are 7-position SATA headers with shrouded styling, through-hole solder termination, board lock features, and gold contact finish. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed across all specified parameters.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The original Assmann WSW component is classified as obsolete. The Molex substitute maintains active product status, ensuring long-term procurement availability and manufacturing support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The Assmann WSW part does not specify packaging format. The Molex 0471554001 is supplied in Tray packaging. Verify tray configuration compatibility with your assembly process requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. The Molex part carries RoHS3 compliance certification. Both share identical HTSUS classification (8536.69.4040).

Q: Is there a difference in contact finish specifications?

A: The Assmann WSW part specifies gold contact finish at 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness. The Molex part specifies gold flash finish. Both provide gold contact surfaces suitable for SATA header applications.
