Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance identical to the primary part number USB-A-S-S-W-SM2-R-TR. Selection among equivalent parts is determined by:

Insulation Color Requirements: The primary part features white insulation. Black insulation variants (USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-R-TR, USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-TR, USB-A-S-S-B-SM2-R-TR) provide functional equivalence where color specification permits substitution.

Inventory Availability: USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-TR maintains the highest inventory level at 2100 units, followed by USB-A-S-F-W-SM2-TR at 1618 units. Selection based on supply chain requirements is permissible without electrical or mechanical compromise.

Connector Configuration: All parts maintain identical receptacle gender and USB 2.0 electrical specifications. Substitution does not require design modification or board layout revision.

Compliance Status: All substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant designation with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and REACH Unaffected status, matching regulatory requirements of the primary part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-R-TR replace USB-A-S-S-W-SM2-R-TR in production?

A: Yes. Both parts are USB 2.0 Type-A receptacle connectors with identical electrical specifications, contact count, mounting configuration, operating temperature range, and voltage rating. The difference is insulation color (black versus white). Substitution is valid where color specification does not impose design constraints.

Q: What is the difference between USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-R-TR and USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-TR?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical USB 2.0 Type-A receptacle connectors with black insulation. The difference is in the part number designation; USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-TR has higher inventory availability (2100 units versus 1179 units). No functional difference exists between these variants.

Q: Are all substitute parts packaged in Tape & Reel format?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, matching the primary part number packaging specification.

Q: Do substitute parts maintain the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. All substitute parts operate across the identical temperature range of -50°C to 85°C, with matching 30VAC voltage rating and 1500 mating cycle specification.

Q: Can insulation color affect USB 2.0 signal integrity?

A: No. Insulation color is a cosmetic and identification parameter only. All substitute parts maintain identical gold contact finish, copper alloy shielding material, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and signal integrity.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best inventory position?

A: USB-A-S-F-B-SM2-TR provides the highest inventory availability at 2100 units in stock. This part is functionally equivalent to the primary part number with the only difference being black insulation color.
