DEM9SP D-Sub 9 Position Receptacle Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DEM9SP is a 9 position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC, designed for panel mount, through hole, right angle solder termination applications. This connector features female sockets with a DE/E shell size (1 position layout) and is rated for 7.5A continuous current operation across an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part maintains active product status with 697 units in current inventory stock.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching core electrical and mechanical parameters: connector style (D-Sub receptacle), position count (9), shell size (DE/E), mounting configuration (right angle solder), and functional compatibility within specified operating conditions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DEM9SP is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters:

• Connector Configuration: D-Sub receptacle, 9 position, 2 row, DE/E shell size (1 layout)
• Mounting & Termination: Right angle, solder termination, panel mount through hole
• Electrical Performance: Current rating and voltage rating compatibility
• Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range, flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Contact & Shell Materials: Gold-plated contacts, steel shell construction

The identified substitute parts (1-106505-2, 5-106505-2, and 8-1393480-1) share the core D-Sub 9 position receptacle configuration with right angle solder termination. However, variations exist in current rating, operating temperature ceiling, shell finish, and compliance certifications that must be evaluated for specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DEM9SP (Primary Part) Select the DEM9SP when the application requires the full 7.5A current rating and extended upper operating temperature of 125°C. This part is suitable for high-current signal distribution applications. Note that RoHS non-compliance may restrict use in regulated markets requiring RoHS3 certification.

1-106505-2 (TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 Series, Tray Packaging) This substitute is suitable for applications requiring RoHS3 compliance and board lock features. The 6A current rating accommodates moderate-current applications. The maximum operating temperature of 105°C is acceptable for standard industrial environments. The tray packaging format supports automated assembly processes. Select this part when RoHS compliance and board lock retention are required.

5-106505-2 (TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 Series, Bulk Packaging) This variant shares electrical and mechanical specifications with 1-106505-2 but is supplied in bulk packaging. It is suitable for high-volume applications where individual tray packaging is not required. RoHS3 compliance is maintained. Select this part for cost-optimized procurement in high-volume production runs.

8-1393480-1 (TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 Series, Board Lock) This part is limited to applications with current requirements not exceeding 2.2A due to its reduced current rating. It maintains the full -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range and RoHS compliance. The board lock feature and gray color differentiate this variant. Select this part only when current requirements are below 2.2A and board lock retention is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-106505-2 or 5-106505-2 directly replace DEM9SP in high-current applications? A: Both TE Connectivity parts are rated for 6A maximum continuous current, compared to DEM9SP's 7.5A rating. Applications requiring sustained current above 6A must retain the DEM9SP. For applications operating at or below 6A, these substitutes are electrically compatible.

Q: What is the impact of the 20°C difference in maximum operating temperature between DEM9SP and 1-106505-2/5-106505-2? A: DEM9SP operates to 125°C while 1-106505-2 and 5-106505-2 operate to 105°C. Applications with sustained operation above 105°C require DEM9SP or 8-1393480-1. Standard industrial applications typically operate below 105°C and are unaffected by this difference.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts? A: DEM9SP is RoHS non-compliant. All TE Connectivity substitutes (1-106505-2, 5-106505-2, 8-1393480-1) are RoHS compliant. Applications subject to RoHS3 regulatory requirements must use TE Connectivity parts.

Q: What is the difference between 1-106505-2 and 5-106505-2? A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary difference is packaging: 1-106505-2 is supplied in trays (suitable for automated assembly), while 5-106505-2 is supplied in bulk (suitable for manual assembly or high-volume bin storage). Select based on assembly process requirements.

Q: Why is 8-1393480-1 rated for only 2.2A? A: The 8-1393480-1 variant uses a different internal contact design and backset spacing (0.371" versus 0.406" on other variants), resulting in reduced current-carrying capacity. This part is suitable only for signal-level applications with current below 2.2A.

Q: Can I use 8-1393480-1 as a direct replacement for DEM9SP? A: No. The 2.2A current rating of 8-1393480-1 is insufficient for applications requiring DEM9SP's 7.5A capacity. Use 8-1393480-1 only in applications with confirmed current requirements below 2.2A.

Q: What shell finish differences exist, and do they affect compatibility? A: DEM9SP uses yellow chromate plated zinc finish, while all TE Connectivity substitutes use tin plated finish. Both finishes provide corrosion protection suitable for standard industrial environments. The finish difference does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
