Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LSHM-120-L3.0-L-DV-A-S-TR are identified based on strict parametric equivalence within the Razor Beam™ LSHM series. The substitution criteria are:

  • Identical number of positions (40)
  • Identical pitch specification (0.020" / 0.50mm)
  • Identical connector type (Self Mating, Non-Gendered, Hermaphroditic)
  • Identical mounting type (Surface Mount)
  • Identical contact finish and thickness (Gold, 10.0µin)
  • Identical row configuration (2 rows)
  • Identical height above board (0.175" / 4.45mm)
  • Identical mated stacking heights (5.5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 9mm)
  • Identical features (Board Guide, Shielded)
  • Identical RoHS and MSL compliance

The substitute part differs only in the stacking height designation within the part number nomenclature, representing a variant within the same electrical and mechanical specification set.
