Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-106-02-G-P-RA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type & Position Count: Receptacle configuration with 6 positions
  • Pitch & Mating Geometry: 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch for mechanical and electrical compatibility
  • Mounting Configuration: Through-hole, right-angle orientation
  • Contact Specifications: Forked contact type with gold mating finish
  • Electrical Performance: 4.7A per contact current rating
  • Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range -55°C ~ 125°C, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ROHS3 compliance

The identified substitute part SSW-106-02-G-S-RA maintains equivalence across all critical parameters. The difference between the main part and substitute is limited to the contact post finish specification, which does not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance in standard applications.
