Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the SSW-108-22-G-D-RA are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the SSW series. The primary substitution criteria are:

  • Connector type (Receptacle)
  • Number of positions (16)
  • Pitch spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
  • Row configuration (2 rows with 0.100" spacing)
  • Mounting style (Through Hole, Right Angle)
  • Contact finish (Gold plating)
  • Current rating (4.7A per contact)
  • Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
  • Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
  • RoHS compliance (ROHS3)

The SSW-108-02-G-D-RA meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct substitute within the same product series and base product number (SSW-108).
