P-2406-CCT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P-2406-CCT is a 6-position Jones connector plug manufactured by Cinch Connectivity Solutions, designed for blade type power connector applications. This part features solder eyelet termination, free-hanging (in-line) mounting, and is rated for 250V at 15A operation. The P-2406-CCT is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new designs requiring this connector type.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the P-2406-CCT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Plug, Jones)
• Number of positions (6)
• Mounting configuration (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Termination method (Solder Eyelet(s))
• Electrical ratings (250V, 15A)
• Operating temperature (105°C)
• Contact material (Brass)
• Insulation material (Phenol Formaldehyde)
• Physical features (Hood, Cable Clamp)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)

The P-2406H-CCT meets all these criteria and is classified as a manufacturer-recommended substitute. The primary distinction between these parts is the contact finish specification and product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The P-2406H-CCT is the manufacturer-designated substitute for the discontinued P-2406-CCT. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including voltage rating, current capacity, connector geometry, and termination method.

The P-2406H-CCT offers two significant advantages: it maintains active product status with current manufacturing availability, and it achieves RoHS compliance through tin contact finish instead of cadmium. The contact finish change from cadmium to tin does not alter the electrical performance or mechanical compatibility of the connector.

For applications requiring the specific cadmium finish of the original P-2406-CCT, the P-2406H-CCT remains functionally equivalent and is the appropriate selection for new designs and replacement applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P-2406H-CCT directly replace the P-2406-CCT in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The P-2406H-CCT is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the P-2406-CCT. Both connectors share identical pin configurations, mounting geometry, electrical ratings, and termination specifications. The contact finish difference (tin versus cadmium) does not affect connector function or compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between the cadmium finish on the P-2406-CCT and the tin finish on the P-2406H-CCT?

A: The contact finish is a surface treatment applied to the brass contact material. Cadmium and tin finishes both provide corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity suitable for the 250V, 15A rating. The tin finish on the P-2406H-CCT enables RoHS compliance, while the cadmium finish on the P-2406-CCT does not.

Q: Why is the P-2406-CCT discontinued?

A: The P-2406-CCT is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. The P-2406H-CCT remains in active production as the current equivalent offering from Cinch Connectivity Solutions.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The P-2406-CCT was supplied in unspecified packaging, while the P-2406H-CCT is supplied in bulk packaging. Both parts are identical in form, fit, and function.

Q: What certifications apply to the P-2406H-CCT?

A: The P-2406H-CCT is RoHS compliant. Both parts carry ECCN EAR99 classification and HTSUS code 8536.69.8000.
