Frequently Asked Questions
What is your minimum order quantity for obsolete connector replacements?
We support orders from single prototype units to full production runs. MOQ starts at just 10 pieces for most connector types, with no upper limit on quantity.
How do you ensure compatibility with legacy connectors?
We use precision 3D scanning and material analysis to reverse-engineer exact mechanical dimensions. Electrical characteristics are verified through impedance testing and TDR analysis.
What lead times can I expect for obsolete connector replacements?
Standard lead time is 4-6 weeks for initial prototypes. Production quantities typically ship within 8-10 weeks. Rush services available (2-3 weeks) for critical legacy-equipment programs.
Do you offer RoHS-compliant versions of legacy connectors?
Yes, we can manufacture exact mechanical replacements using modern RoHS-compliant materials while maintaining original electrical specifications. All replacements meet current environmental regulations.
What documentation do you provide with replacement connectors?
Each order includes full mechanical drawings, material certifications, electrical test reports, and IPC-A-620 compliance documentation. Full lot-level traceability documentation is available on request.
