Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AXW34014A is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: 40 positions (fixed requirement)
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm) (fixed requirement)
• Number of Rows: 2 rows (fixed requirement)
• Row Spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm) (fixed requirement)
• Contact Type: Female Socket (fixed requirement)
• Contact Termination: Crimp (fixed requirement)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line) (fixed requirement)
• Color: Black (fixed requirement)

The substitute part 1-104482-8 meets all critical dimensional and functional parameters required for direct substitution. Both housings accommodate identical contact configurations and mounting specifications, enabling interchangeability in applications requiring 40-position, 2.54mm pitch rectangular connectors with crimp termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 1-104482-8 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete AXW34014A. Both housings share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 40-position configuration, 2.54mm pitch, 2-row layout, crimp termination, and free-hanging mounting.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The 1-104482-8 carries RoHS Compliance certification, meeting modern regulatory requirements for new designs and procurement cycles. Both parts maintain MSL 1 rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling.

Selection of the 1-104482-8 is appropriate for applications requiring direct replacement of the AXW34014A or for new designs requiring 40-position, 2.54mm pitch rectangular connector housings with female socket contacts and crimp termination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-104482-8 directly replace the AXW34014A in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both housings share identical specifications for number of positions (40), pitch (2.54mm), row configuration (2 rows), contact type (female socket), and termination method (crimp). The housings are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between "Socket" and "Receptacle" terminology for these parts?

A: Both terms refer to the same functional housing type that accepts crimp contacts. The AXW34014A uses "Socket" designation while the 1-104482-8 uses "Receptacle" designation. These are equivalent descriptions for the same connector class.

Q: Why is the AXW34014A listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works. The 1-104482-8 provides an active alternative from TE Connectivity with identical functional specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 1-104482-8 carries RoHS Compliance certification. The AXW34014A compliance status is not specified in available documentation. Both parts maintain MSL 1 rating for moisture sensitivity.

Q: Do these housings include contacts?

A: No. Both the AXW34014A and 1-104482-8 are housings only. Crimp contacts must be sourced separately and inserted into the housing according to manufacturer specifications.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The AXW34014A is available in standard packaging. The 1-104482-8 is supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for high-volume procurement and assembly operations.
