Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the QR/P6-16P-C(01) is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Housing for Male Pins
• Number of Positions: 16
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Connector Style: Rack and Panel
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount
• Connector Usage: Plug
• Features: Guide Pin
• Color: Black
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The QR/P6-16P-C(21) meets all these criteria and is identified as the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Both parts belong to the QR/P6 series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The QR/P6-16P-C(21) is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete QR/P6-16P-C(01). Both components are RoHS compliant and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The QR/P6-16P-C(21) carries active product status, ensuring continued availability and support from Hirose Electric Co Ltd. Selection of the active substitute part eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full functional and dimensional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are QR/P6-16P-C(01) and QR/P6-16P-C(21) mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are 16-position housings for male pins with identical pitch (0.100"), row configuration (2 rows), mounting type (panel mount), and guide pin features. They are mechanically interchangeable in rack and panel applications.

Q: What is the difference between QR/P6-16P-C(01) and QR/P6-16P-C(21)?

A: The primary difference is product status. QR/P6-16P-C(01) is obsolete, while QR/P6-16P-C(21) is active. The packaging differs (QR/P6-16P-C(01) is unspecified; QR/P6-16P-C(21) is supplied in bags). All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use QR/P6-16P-C(21) as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The QR/P6-16P-C(21) is the manufacturer-recommended substitute and maintains full compatibility with applications designed for QR/P6-16P-C(01).

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both QR/P6-16P-C(01) and QR/P6-16P-C(21) are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Why should I transition from QR/P6-16P-C(01) to QR/P6-16P-C(21)?

A: The QR/P6-16P-C(01) is obsolete. Transitioning to the active QR/P6-16P-C(21) ensures long-term supply availability, continued manufacturer support, and eliminates the risk of future unavailability.
