Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SSW-106-21-G-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (6)
• Mating pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
• Contact type (Forked)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Contact finish (Gold)
• Current rating per contact (4.7A)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Insulation material (Liquid Crystal Polymer)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS compliance status (ROHS3)

The identified substitute SSW-106-01-G-S maintains all these parameters, confirming direct substitutability within the SSW series.
