Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SS-6466-FLS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Jack)
• Contact configuration (6p6c for RJ11, RJ12, RJ14, RJ25 compatibility)
• Orientation (90° right-angle)
• Mounting method (through-hole solder termination)
• Shielding requirement (shielded)
• Contact material and finish specifications (copper alloy with gold plating at 30.0µin)
• Housing material (thermoplastic)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C)
• Mechanical features (board lock, panel stops, down tab direction)

The substitute part SS-6466S-A-PGFLS maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS is the direct equivalent for the obsolete SS-6466-FLS. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability. The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS carries ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements. Packaging is provided in tray format with MSL rating of 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), indicating standard handling conditions. Selection of the active substitute part is appropriate for new designs and ongoing production support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are SS-6466-FLS and SS-6466S-A-PGFLS electrically and mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical specifications for connector type, contact configuration (6p6c), orientation (90° right-angle), mounting method (through-hole solder), shielding, contact materials, finish specifications, housing material, and operating temperature range. They are direct functional equivalents.

Q: Why is the SS-6466-FLS listed as obsolete?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS represents the active equivalent in the Stewart Connector product line and is the recommended selection for current applications.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The SS-6466-FLS packaging is not specified in available documentation. The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for modular connector distribution.

Q: Does the substitute part meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS is ROHS3 compliant and carries REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: Are there any differences in moisture sensitivity handling?

A: The SS-6466-FLS lists MSL as Not Applicable. The SS-6466S-A-PGFLS carries MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating standard storage and handling conditions with no special moisture control requirements.

Q: Can the SS-6466S-A-PGFLS be used in existing designs that specify SS-6466-FLS?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for RJ11, RJ12, RJ14, and RJ25 applications. Direct substitution is appropriate for PCB assembly and system integration.
