SSM-120-L-DV-P-TR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSM-120-L-DV-P-TR is a 40-position receptacle pass-through connector from Samtec Inc.'s Tiger Claw™ SSM series. This surface mount rectangular connector features 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch mating, gold-plated female socket contacts, and solder termination with push-pull fastening. The connector is rated for 5.2A per contact at 405VAC/572VDC and operates across -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, inventory optimization, or design flexibility requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for rectangular connectors in the SSM series is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Configuration: 40 positions, 2 rows, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and row spacing
  • Connector Type & Contact: Receptacle, pass-through configuration with female socket contacts
  • Electrical Performance: 5.2A per contact current rating and 405VAC/572VDC voltage rating
  • Mounting & Termination: Surface mount with solder termination
  • Fastening & Mating Interface: Push-pull fastening type with gold-plated mating contacts
  • Environmental & Compliance: Operating temperature range -55°C to 125°C, ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating

The substitute part SSM-120-L-DV-K-TR meets all these criteria and belongs to the same Tiger Claw™ SSM series from Samtec Inc.
