BXCONN
A pin-compatible replacement from the same manufacturer with a red housing.
WF-1A254A4P is a standard 4-pin, 2.54mm pitch straight male header from BXCONN. This page provides analysis of potential substitutes, including pin-compatible color variants and functional alternatives from other manufacturers.
Alternatives have identical or superior electrical ratings.
Cross-vendor parts require datasheet verification of mechanical drawings.
Multiple pin-compatible and functional alternatives are available.
Direct replacement for WF-1A254A4P should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Start with Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates for WF-1A254A4P, then review parametric alternatives for package and electrical fit.
