Engineering Selection Recommendations

A-USB/2-A-LP (MFR Recommended Substitute)

This part is the primary substitute for the obsolete A-USB/2-A-LP-R. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications with full parameter alignment, including current rating (1.5A), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), and mounting configuration. The part is manufactured by the same original manufacturer (Assmann WSW Components) and carries active product status. It includes shielding, which provides enhanced electromagnetic interference protection. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are maintained. Packaging is supplied in Tray format.

A-USB A-LP-C (Parametric Equivalent)

This part provides parametric equivalence with the main connector type, specifications, and mounting characteristics. It is manufactured by Assmann WSW Components and maintains active product status. The current rating is reduced to 1A (compared to 1.5A), and the operating temperature range is narrower (-20°C ~ 85°C versus -55°C ~ 85°C). This part is suitable for applications where the reduced current rating and narrower temperature range do not conflict with design requirements. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are maintained.

1002-015-01001 (Direct Manufacturer Alternative)

This part is manufactured by CNC Tech and provides full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the main part. It matches the current rating (1.5A) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C). The part carries active product status and maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. This option provides cross-manufacturer substitution capability while preserving all critical electrical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can A-USB/2-A-LP be used as a direct replacement for A-USB/2-A-LP-R?

A: Yes. A-USB/2-A-LP is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. It maintains identical connector type, USB 2.0 specifications, 4-position configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 1.5A current rating, and -55°C ~ 85°C operating temperature range. The primary difference is active product status and the addition of shielding.

Q: What is the difference between A-USB/2-A-LP and A-USB A-LP-C?

A: Both parts share the same connector type, USB 2.0 specifications, and mounting configuration. The key differences are: A-USB A-LP-C has a reduced current rating (1A versus 1.5A) and a narrower operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 85°C versus -55°C ~ 85°C). Select A-USB A-LP-C only if your application does not require the full 1.5A current capacity or extended low-temperature operation below -20°C.

Q: Can I use 1002-015-01001 (CNC Tech) instead of the Assmann part?

A: Yes. The 1002-015-01001 provides full electrical and mechanical compatibility, matching the 1.5A current rating and -55°C ~ 85°C operating temperature range. It is manufactured by a different supplier (CNC Tech) but maintains identical connector specifications and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH unaffected).

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?

A: Yes. A-USB/2-A-LP-R packaging is not specified. A-USB/2-A-LP and A-USB A-LP-C are supplied in Tray packaging. 1002-015-01001 is also supplied in Tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process.

Q: Do all substitute parts maintain the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. All substitute parts (A-USB/2-A-LP, A-USB A-LP-C, and 1002-015-01001) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the original part's regulatory status.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute the A-USB/2-A-LP-R?

A: The A-USB/2-A-LP-R is classified as obsolete. Substitution is necessary to ensure continued component availability for production, repair, and maintenance applications. All recommended substitutes maintain active product status.
