SS-73100-011 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SS-73100-011 is a modular jack connector manufactured by Stewart Connector, designed for 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) applications. This shielded, right-angle connector features through-hole solder termination with EMI finger shielding and is rated for Cat5e performance. The part is currently active in production with 738 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are required due to inventory constraints, lead time considerations, or design flexibility within the allowed parameter range.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SS-73100-011 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector type (Jack)
Contact configuration (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet)
Mounting method (Through Hole)
Physical orientation (90° Right Angle)
Termination method (Solder)
Shielding type (Shielded with EMI Finger)
Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C minimum)
Contact finish specification (Gold plating)
Regulatory compliance (RoHS and REACH status)

The substitute part 5569262-1 meets all these criteria. Minor variations in housing material (Polycyclohexylenedimethylene Terephthalate vs. Thermoplastic) and contact material (Phosphor Bronze vs. Copper Alloy) do not affect functional equivalence within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters. The Cat5 rating of the substitute part is backward compatible with Cat5e applications.
