SSW-106-02-T-P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SSW-106-02-T-P is a 6-position receptacle connector manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for board-to-board or cable applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch through-hole mounting. This connector features tin-plated forked contacts, phosphor bronze construction, and operates across -55°C to 105°C with a current rating of 4.7A per contact. The part is active in production and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are required for design flexibility, inventory optimization, or supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-106-02-T-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (receptacle), number of positions (6), mating pitch (0.100"), mounting method (through hole), contact configuration (forked), termination type (solder), current capacity (4.7A per contact), operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), contact material (phosphor bronze), contact finish (tin), insulation material (LCP), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0). The identified substitute SSW-106-02-T-S meets all these criteria, differing only in packaging configuration and inventory availability, making it functionally and mechanically interchangeable in circuit design and PCB assembly.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SSW-106-02-T-P and SSW-106-02-T-S are active production parts with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and supply availability. The SSW-106-02-T-P is supplied in bulk packaging with 966 pieces in stock, while SSW-106-02-T-S is supplied in bulk packaging with 19,000 pieces in stock. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification. For applications requiring immediate availability or high-volume procurement, SSW-106-02-T-S offers greater inventory depth. For standard applications, either part provides equivalent performance and reliability.
