AWP14-7241-T-R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AWP14-7241-T-R is a 14 Position Rectangular Socket Connector with IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination and gold plating, manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. This connector features a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch in a 2-row configuration with feed-through and polarizing key design for ribbon cable applications.

The AWP14-7241-T-R is classified as obsolete. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary to maintain system compatibility and ensure continued availability for applications requiring 14-position IDC rectangular connectors with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AWP14-7241-T-R is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• 14 positions with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
• 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
• IDC ribbon cable termination
• Gold contact finish
• Free hanging in-line mounting
• MSL 1 rating
• REACH Unaffected compliance

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on connector type and feature alignment:

Category 1: Direct Socket Equivalents – Parts maintaining socket connector type with identical feature sets (feed-through, polarizing key, strain relief where applicable).

Category 2: Functional Equivalents – Parts with receptacle or header connector types that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility through IDC termination and identical position/pitch specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: AWP 14-7240-T

The AWP 14-7240-T is the direct equivalent from Assmann WSW Components. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the AWP14-7241-T-R while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part is the preferred substitute for direct replacement applications.

Secondary Recommendations: 3M 3385 Series (3385-6000, 3385-7000)

Both 3M parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with identical position, pitch, row spacing, and IDC termination specifications. The 3385-6000 features feed-through design, while the 3385-7000 features closed-end design. Both are RoHS compliant and actively manufactured. Selection between these variants depends on application-specific end-of-line requirements.

Alternative Recommendation: CWR-217-14-0000

The CW Industries CWR-217-14-0000 provides functional equivalence with identical electrical specifications and ROHS3 compliance. This part maintains feed-through, polarizing key, and strain relief features matching the original design. Color differs (blue versus gray), which may impact visual identification in applications where connector color coding is significant.

Functional Alternative: SFH210-PPPC-D07-ID-BK-M181

The Sullins SFH210-PPPC-D07-ID-BK-M181 is a header connector variant maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part is suitable for applications where header-type connectors are compatible with the original socket design. ROHS3 compliance and active status support long-term availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AWP 14-7240-T directly replace AWP14-7241-T-R?

A: Yes. The AWP 14-7240-T is a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and packaging format (tray versus original packaging).

Q: What is the difference between 3385-6000 and 3385-7000?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The 3385-6000 features feed-through design, while the 3385-7000 features closed-end design. Selection depends on whether the application requires signal pass-through capability at the connector end.

Q: Why does CWR-217-14-0000 have a different color?

A: The CWR-217-14-0000 is blue instead of gray. This is a cosmetic difference that does not affect electrical or mechanical function. Color selection should be based on application requirements for visual identification or connector coding schemes.

Q: Can header connectors like SFH210-PPPC-D07-ID-BK-M181 replace socket connectors?

A: The SFH210-PPPC-D07-ID-BK-M181 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications for IDC ribbon cable termination. Compatibility depends on the mating connector type in the application. If the application uses socket connectors, a header variant may not be mechanically compatible.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are RoHS compliant (RoHS or ROHS3). The original AWP14-7241-T-R RoHS status was not specified in available documentation.

Q: What wire gauge specifications apply to these connectors?

A: The AWP14-7241-T-R and AWP 14-7240-T do not specify wire gauge. The 3M parts (3385-6000, 3385-7000) and SFH210-PPPC-D07-ID-BK-M181 support 26-28 AWG and 28 AWG respectively. The CWR-217-14-0000 does not specify wire gauge. All parts support standard ribbon cable termination.

Q: Is MSL rating identical across all parts?

A: Yes. All parts, including the original AWP14-7241-T-R and all substitutes, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions.
