Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M80-4561298 is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle housing with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 12 positions at 0.079" (2.00mm) pitch
• Physical Layout: 2-row configuration with 0.079" (2.00mm) row spacing
• Mounting & Termination: Free hanging in-line mounting with crimp termination capability
• Environmental & Compliance: Operating temperature range -55°C to 125°C, ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating

The M80-4811205 qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on these parameters. Both connectors share identical pitch, position count, row configuration, and mounting characteristics. The substitute maintains equivalent environmental ratings and regulatory compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M80-4811205 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete M80-4561298. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 12-position configuration, 2.00mm pitch, 2-row layout, and free hanging in-line mounting. Both achieve ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring equivalent environmental and regulatory performance.

The primary distinction is product status: M80-4561298 is obsolete while M80-4811205 is active. For applications currently using M80-4561298, transition to M80-4811205 ensures continued component availability and manufacturer support. The substitute is available in bulk packaging with 1045 pieces in current inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-4811205 directly replace M80-4561298 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), position count (12), row configuration (2 rows), and mounting type (free hanging in-line). Electrical and mechanical compatibility is maintained across all specified parameters.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: M80-4561298 is classified as obsolete. M80-4811205 is the active equivalent from the same manufacturer, providing continued availability and support for this connector footprint.

Q: Are environmental ratings equivalent between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both connectors operate across -55°C to 125°C, carry ROHS3 compliance, and maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What packaging differences exist?

A: M80-4561298 packaging is not specified in available data. M80-4811205 is supplied in bulk packaging with current inventory of 1045 pieces.

Q: Are contact specifications identical?

A: Both connectors feature female socket contacts with crimp termination. M80-4811205 specifies 24-28 AWG wire gauge compatibility and gold contact finish at 11.8µin (0.30µm) thickness.
