Amphenol ICC L17HTNES4F1CT D-Sub 9-Position Receptacle Connector

Part Overview

The L17HTNES4F1CT is a 9-position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This connector features female sockets with right-angle through-hole solder termination and is designed for signal applications requiring robust mechanical and electrical performance. The connector maintains an active product status with 944 units currently in stock.

Substitute parts are identified to address packaging variations and compliance requirements while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary substitute differs only in packaging configuration and RoHS compliance status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between the L17HTNES4F1CT and L17HTNES4F1C is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both connectors share identical specifications across all critical functional parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Current rating (5A), voltage rating (600V), contact material (copper alloy), contact finish (gold, flash thickness), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C) are identical.

Mechanical Parameters: Connector type (receptacle, female sockets), number of positions (9), shell size (1, DE/E layout), mounting type (through hole, right angle), termination method (solder), flange feature (mating side, female screwlock 4-40), and backset spacing (0.318"/8.08mm) are identical.

Material and Construction: Shell material and finish (steel, tin-nickel plated), dielectric material (thermoplastic, glass filled), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and board lock feature are identical.

Differentiating Factors: The substitute part L17HTNES4F1C differs only in packaging (tray versus tube) and RoHS compliance status (RoHS compliant versus RoHS non-compliant).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the L17HTNES4F1CT and L17HTNES4F1C are active products from Amphenol ICC with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by application requirements and regulatory compliance mandates.

L17HTNES4F1CT is appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is not required and tube packaging is acceptable for assembly processes.

L17HTNES4F1C is appropriate for applications requiring RoHS compliance and where tray packaging is compatible with automated assembly or inventory management systems. This part has higher current inventory availability (1523 units versus 944 units).

Both connectors meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are rated for identical electrical parameters (5A at 600V) across the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. The choice between these parts does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or thermal characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are L17HTNES4F1CT and L17HTNES4F1C electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors have identical electrical specifications including 5A current rating, 600V voltage rating, gold-plated copper alloy contacts, and operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Q: Are these connectors mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors have identical mechanical specifications including 9-position D-Sub receptacle configuration, shell size 1 (DE/E layout), right-angle through-hole solder termination, 0.318" (8.08mm) backset spacing, and female screwlock (4-40) flange feature.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The L17HTNES4F1CT is supplied in tube packaging and is RoHS non-compliant. The L17HTNES4F1C is supplied in tray packaging and is RoHS compliant. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Which part should I select for a new design?

A: Selection depends on regulatory requirements and assembly process compatibility. If RoHS compliance is required, select L17HTNES4F1C. If RoHS compliance is not required and tube packaging is acceptable, either part is suitable.

Q: Does packaging affect connector performance?

A: No. Packaging (tube versus tray) affects only handling, storage, and assembly logistics. Electrical and mechanical performance is identical regardless of packaging type.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. L17HTNES4F1CT has 944 units in stock. L17HTNES4F1C has 1523 units in stock.

Q: Can I use these connectors in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 150°C and meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Q: What is the contact finish specification?

A: Both connectors feature gold-plated contacts with flash thickness on copper alloy base material, providing corrosion resistance and reliable electrical contact.
