Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TM2RE-2416 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Jack)
• Contact configuration (6p4c / RJ11, RJ14)
• Number of ports (4)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Orientation (Vertical)
• Termination type (Solder)
• Shielding classification (Unshielded)
• Contact material and finish (Phosphor Bronze with Gold finish)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 80°C)
• Housing material (PBT)

The substitute part TM2RE-2416(50) maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part number, with the primary distinction being packaging format (Tray versus standard packaging) and RoHS compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TM2RE-2416(50) serves as a direct functional equivalent to the TM2RE-2416. Both parts are classified as obsolete products from Hirose Electric Co Ltd with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

A key distinction exists in regulatory compliance: TM2RE-2416(50) carries RoHS Compliant status, while the original TM2RE-2416 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements or environmental regulations, TM2RE-2416(50) is the appropriate selection. The packaging difference (Tray format for the substitute) does not affect functional performance or board-level compatibility.

Both parts maintain identical operating temperature ranges, contact materials, and mechanical mounting characteristics, ensuring interchangeability at the functional level.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TM2RE-2416(50) be used as a direct replacement for TM2RE-2416?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary differences are packaging format (Tray) and RoHS compliance status. Functional performance and board-level compatibility are equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the "(50)" designation in TM2RE-2416(50)?

A: The "(50)" suffix indicates the packaging format (Tray) and quantity per package. This is a packaging variant of the base part number TM2RE-2416, not a functional modification.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance implications when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. TM2RE-2416(50) is RoHS Compliant, while TM2RE-2416 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, TM2RE-2416(50) is the appropriate choice.

Q: Do both parts support the same contact configuration?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 6 positions with 4 contacts in RJ11/RJ14 configuration with identical contact material (Phosphor Bronze) and finish (Gold).

Q: What mounting compatibility exists between these parts?

A: Both parts are through-hole mounted with vertical orientation and solder termination. Board layout and footprint compatibility is maintained between the two part numbers.
