• Manufacturer: Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd
• Series: Both parts belong to the HRM series

The HRM-202S(40) maintains active product status and full compliance certifications, making it suitable for applications previously served by the obsolete HRM-202S(41).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HRM-202S(40) is the appropriate selection for applications currently using or specifying the obsolete HRM-202S(41). This recommendation is based on:

• Manufacturer designation as the direct substitute
• Active product status ensuring ongoing availability and support
• RoHS compliance certification of the substitute part
• Shared base product number and series classification
• Consistent manufacturer sourcing from Hirose Electric Co Ltd

The transition from HRM-202S(41) to HRM-202S(40) does not introduce compliance or regulatory barriers for new designs or component refresh cycles.
