Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—GSB3116341HR, GSB3116342HR, and GSB3116344HR—are classified as Active product status and maintain full compliance with RoHS regulations. GSB3116341HR and GSB3116342HR carry RoHS Compliant certification, while GSB3116344HR carries ROHS3 Compliant certification. Both compliance levels are acceptable for current production applications.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times, as all three connectors are electrically and mechanically identical. GSB3116344HR currently maintains the highest inventory level at 4329 pieces, followed by GSB3116342HR at 844 pieces, and GSB3116341HR at 783 pieces.

All parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and share identical electrical performance characteristics, mechanical dimensions, and environmental specifications. No performance degradation or functional limitation occurs when substituting between these three part numbers within the same application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are GSB3116342HR and GSB3116344HR direct substitutes for GSB3116341HR?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications (USB 3.2 Gen 1, 1.8A current rating, 30VDC voltage rating), mechanical configuration (9-position panel mount receptacle, right-angle through-hole, vertical mounting), and environmental ratings (-55°C to 85°C operating temperature, 5000 mating cycles). All three parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC and share the same base product number GSB3116.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant?

A: Both certifications indicate compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. ROHS3 represents a more recent revision of the RoHS directive. Both compliance levels are acceptable for current production applications. GSB3116341HR and GSB3116342HR carry RoHS Compliant certification, while GSB3116344HR carries ROHS3 Compliant certification.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in the same PCB design?

A: Yes. All three connectors share identical mounting specifications (Panel Mount, Through Hole, Right Angle with Vertical orientation), identical contact configuration (9 positions), and identical termination method (Solder). No PCB layout modifications are required when substituting between these part numbers.

Q: What is the significance of the insulation color being Blue?

A: The Blue insulation color is a visual identifier for the connector type and specification level. All three substitute parts maintain this identical color specification, ensuring consistent visual identification across production batches and inventory management.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental limitations when substituting these parts?

A: No. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 85°C and maintain identical shielding (Shielded), contact finish (Gold), and shell material (Steel, Stainless). Environmental performance is equivalent across all three part numbers.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating?

A: All three parts carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: How many mating cycles are supported by these connectors?

A: All three connectors support 5000 mating cycles, providing identical mechanical durability and connector lifespan expectations.
