Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete SS24M1T is based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications in the following categories:

Electrical Parameters: Contact type (socket), contact size (16), wire gauge range (24-26 AWG / 0.14-0.25 mm²), termination method (crimp), contact material (copper alloy), and finish specification (tin).

Mechanical Parameters: Stamped construction type, signal classification, and insulation support feature.

Compliance Parameters: RoHS3 compliance, MSL Level 1, and REACH unaffected status.

Manufacturer Consistency: Parts must originate from Amphenol Sine Systems Corp within the ecomate® Aquarius™ series to ensure connector system compatibility.

The SS24M2T meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, providing direct functional and physical equivalence to the obsolete SS24M1T.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SS24M2T is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete SS24M1T. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp within the ecomate® Aquarius™ series and maintain identical electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications.

Product Status Advantage: The SS24M2T is classified as an active product with confirmed inventory availability (918 Pcs), ensuring long-term supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete SS24M1T status.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL Level 1 rating, and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for equivalent component substitution.

Packaging Consideration: The SS24M2T is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which differs from the bulk packaging of the SS24M1T. This packaging format is standard for high-volume automated assembly operations and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Application Compatibility: The SS24M2T integrates directly into ecomate® Aquarius™ connector systems designed for the SS24M1T, with no modifications to mating connectors, cable assemblies, or system architecture required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SS24M2T be used as a direct replacement for SS24M1T in existing designs?

A: Yes. The SS24M2T is electrically and mechanically identical to the SS24M1T across all specified parameters. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status: SS24M1T is obsolete, while SS24M2T is active. Both parts share identical contact specifications, materials, finishes, and compliance certifications. Packaging format differs (bulk versus Tape & Reel), but this does not affect component performance.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues with existing connector assemblies?

A: No compatibility issues exist. Both parts are from the same manufacturer series (ecomate® Aquarius™) with identical contact size, termination method, and mechanical dimensions. They are fully interchangeable within the same connector system.

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging of SS24M2T affect its electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format is a logistics and handling specification only. The electrical and mechanical properties of the contact remain unchanged regardless of packaging method.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the SS24M2T?

A: The SS24M2T supports 24-26 AWG wire gauges, equivalent to 0.14-0.25 mm² in metric specification. This range is identical to the SS24M1T.

Q: Is the SS24M2T RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The SS24M2T is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance profile of the SS24M1T.

Q: What is the MSL rating for the SS24M2T?

A: The MSL rating is Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
