Equivalent & Substitute Parts for Tripp Lite P104-000

Part Overview

The Tripp Lite P104-000 is a D-Sub adapter connector that converts D-Sub 9 Pin Male connections to D-Sub 25 Pin Female connections. This adapter is configured as a Serial-Null Modem connector in a free hanging (in-line) mounting style with shielded construction and gold-plated contacts.

The P104-000 carries an Obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts ensures continued availability for system maintenance, repair, and integration where this adapter function is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the P104-000 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Category: D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors
• Convert To End: D-Sub, 25 Pin Female
• Number of Rows: 2
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Shielding: Shielded (where applicable)
• REACH and ECCN compliance alignment

Note on Functional Differences: The substitute part GCLP25M25F converts D-Sub 25 Pin Male to D-Sub 25 Pin Female, differing from the P104-000 which converts D-Sub 9 Pin Male to D-Sub 25 Pin Female. The substitute is listed based on manufacturer recommendation and shares the D-Sub 25 Pin Female output specification and gold contact finish. Selection of this substitute requires verification that the input connector type (25 Pin Male vs. 9 Pin Male) is compatible with the application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Product Status Consideration: The P104-000 is classified as Obsolete. The substitute part GCLP25M25F carries an Active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support, availability, and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected and EAR99 ECCN classifications, indicating equivalent regulatory positioning for export and environmental compliance.

Availability: The P104-000 has 949 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The GCLP25M25F has 898 pieces in stock as new original inventory, providing comparable supply availability.

Connector Configuration Difference: The primary distinction between these parts is the input connector type: the P104-000 accepts D-Sub 9 Pin Male input, while the GCLP25M25F accepts D-Sub 25 Pin Male input. Both output to D-Sub 25 Pin Female. Selection of the substitute requires confirmation that the source connector in the application is D-Sub 25 Pin Male rather than D-Sub 9 Pin Male.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary functional difference between the P104-000 and GCLP25M25F?

A: The P104-000 converts D-Sub 9 Pin Male to D-Sub 25 Pin Female. The GCLP25M25F converts D-Sub 25 Pin Male to D-Sub 25 Pin Female. Both output to the same D-Sub 25 Pin Female connector type.

Q: Can the GCLP25M25F directly replace the P104-000 in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible only if the source connector in the application is D-Sub 25 Pin Male. If the application requires conversion from D-Sub 9 Pin Male, the GCLP25M25F is not functionally equivalent.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by: connector category (D-Sub), output connector type (25 Pin Female), number of rows (2), contact finish (Gold), and regulatory compliance (REACH and ECCN alignment).

Q: How do the mounting types differ between these parts?

A: The P104-000 uses Free Hanging (In-Line) mounting, allowing flexible cable integration. The GCLP25M25F uses Panel Mount configuration, requiring fixed installation on an enclosure or panel.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: The GCLP25M25F is specified as ROHS3 Compliant. The P104-000 RoHS status is not provided in the available specifications.

Q: What is the current rating for these adapters?

A: The GCLP25M25F is rated for 5 A. The P104-000 current rating is not specified in the available data.

Q: What operating temperature ranges are supported?

A: The GCLP25M25F operates from -55°C to 105°C. The P104-000 operating temperature range is not specified in the available data.
