M80-6911298 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The M80-6911298 is a 12-position rectangular receptacle connector housing manufactured by Harwin Inc., part of the Datamate Trio-Tek series. This connector features a 2.00mm pitch, dual-row configuration, and latch lock fastening suitable for free-hanging in-line applications. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M80-6911298 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle 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 contact termination
Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C and RoHS3 compliance

Two substitute parts meet these criteria:

M80-8881205 (Harwin Inc., Datamate L-Tek series) qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute. While it maintains identical position count, pitch, row configuration, and mounting type, it differs in fastening mechanism (locking ramp versus latch lock) and includes integrated cable termination specifications (24-28 AWG discrete wire).

10073599-012LF (Amphenol ICC/FCI, Minitek® 2.00mm series) qualifies as a parametric equivalent. It matches all critical mechanical and electrical parameters including position count, pitch, row spacing, mounting type, and fastening mechanism (latch lock). Both are receptacle housings with female socket contacts rated for the same operating temperature range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For direct mechanical and electrical compatibility: Select 10073599-012LF (Amphenol ICC/FCI). This part maintains identical fastening mechanism (latch lock), position count, pitch, row configuration, and operating temperature range. Both the M80-6911298 and 10073599-012LF are receptacle housings without integrated contacts, requiring separate contact procurement. The part is currently in active production status with 5,240 units in stock.

For manufacturer continuity within Harwin ecosystem: Select M80-8881205 (Harwin Inc., Datamate L-Tek). This part is the manufacturer-recommended substitute and maintains the same connector family lineage. It differs in fastening mechanism (locking ramp instead of latch lock) and includes integrated cable termination specifications. The part is in active production status with 16,010 units in stock, providing superior availability.

Both substitute parts satisfy RoHS compliance requirements and operate within the specified temperature range. Selection between them depends on whether fastening mechanism compatibility or manufacturer continuity takes precedence in your application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M80-8881205 directly replace M80-6911298 in existing assemblies?

A: M80-8881205 maintains the same 12-position, 2.00mm pitch, dual-row configuration and free-hanging in-line mounting. However, the fastening mechanism differs (locking ramp versus latch lock). Physical fit and mating force characteristics may differ. Mechanical validation is required before deployment in existing designs.

Q: What is the key difference between the two substitute parts?

A: 10073599-012LF matches the original M80-6911298 fastening type (latch lock) and is manufactured by a different supplier (Amphenol ICC/FCI). M80-8881205 is the Harwin manufacturer-recommended substitute but uses a different fastening mechanism (locking ramp). Both maintain identical position count, pitch, and row spacing.

Q: Are contacts included with these receptacle housings?

A: No. The M80-6911298, M80-8881205, and 10073599-012LF are receptacle housings only. Contacts must be procured separately and are not included with the housing.

Q: Do all three parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. M80-6911298 and M80-8881205 are ROHS3 compliant. 10073599-012LF is RoHS compliant. All three parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (unlimited shelf life) and operate across the -55°C ~ 125°C temperature range.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: M80-6911298 (obsolete) has 680 units in stock. M80-8881205 (active) has 16,010 units in stock. 10073599-012LF (active) has 5,240 units in stock. For long-term procurement, active-status parts are recommended.
