Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts maintain active product status and full compliance with ROHS3 requirements and MSL 1 specifications. Selection between substitute options is based on availability and supply chain considerations:

5787834-1 and 5787834-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) are parametrically identical with documented operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), current rating (1A per Contact), and mating cycle specification (1500 cycles). Both feature UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The primary difference is insulation color (Black for 5787834-1, Natural for 5787834-2) and inventory availability (1583 Pcs and 2300 Pcs respectively).

USBR-B-S-F-O-VT (Samtec Inc., USBR Series) provides equivalent electrical and mechanical performance with operating temperature range of -50°C ~ 85°C and 1500 mating cycles. Material flammability rating is not specified for this part. Inventory availability is 2232 Pcs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5787834-1 and 5787834-2 be used interchangeably with A-USB/2-B-TOP?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametrically equivalent USB 2.0 Type-B receptacle connectors with identical electrical specifications, 4-position through-hole vertical mount configuration, solder termination, board lock feature, and ROHS3 compliance. Insulation color differs (Black and Natural respectively) but does not affect electrical function.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity substitute parts (5787834-1 and 5787834-2)?

A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary difference is insulation color: 5787834-1 features black insulation while 5787834-2 features natural insulation. Selection may be based on visual identification requirements or inventory availability.

Q: Is USBR-B-S-F-O-VT suitable for applications requiring UL94 V-0 certification?

A: USBR-B-S-F-O-VT material flammability rating is not specified in available documentation. If UL94 V-0 certification is a mandatory requirement, 5787834-1, 5787834-2, or the original A-USB/2-B-TOP are confirmed compliant alternatives.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: 5787834-1 and USBR-B-S-F-O-VT are ROHS3 compliant. 5787834-2 is listed as RoHS Compliant without specific ROHS3 designation. All parts meet unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) requirements.

Q: What are the operating temperature ranges for each part?

A: A-USB/2-B-TOP operating temperature is not specified. TE Connectivity parts (5787834-1 and 5787834-2) operate from -55°C to 85°C. Samtec USBR-B-S-F-O-VT operates from -50°C to 85°C. Selection should align with application temperature requirements.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-cycle mating applications?

A: TE Connectivity (5787834-1, 5787834-2) and Samtec (USBR-B-S-F-O-VT) parts are rated for 1500 mating cycles. Mating cycle specification for A-USB/2-B-TOP is not provided. Applications requiring higher cycle counts should reference manufacturer datasheets for extended life specifications.
