• Number of rows: 5
• Mounting type: Board Edge, Through Hole, Right Angle
• Connector type: Header, Male Pins
• Contact finish: Gold
• Current rating: 1.5A
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0

The substitute part maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct functional equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MP2-P030-54M1-LR is the direct substitute for the obsolete MP2-P030-54M1-TR30. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: the substitute is currently active and available, whereas the original part is obsolete.

The MP2-P030-54M1-LR carries RoHS Compliant certification and an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), providing enhanced compliance documentation for modern procurement and environmental standards. These certifications do not alter the functional equivalence of the connector but provide additional regulatory assurance for new system designs and legacy equipment upgrades.
