Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SSM-108-L-SV-TR are determined by equivalence in the following critical parameters:

  • Number of positions: 8
  • Pitch - mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
  • Connector type: Receptacle, Pass Through
  • Contact type: Female Socket
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount
  • Termination: Solder
  • Current rating: 5.2A per Contact
  • Voltage rating: 405VAC, 572VDC
  • Operating temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
  • Contact finish - mating: Gold
  • Insulation material: Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)
