Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between the Amphenol RF 082-6157 and equivalent part 172219 is based on matching the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Connector style: N Type
• Connector type: Plug, Male Pin
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Frequency maximum: 11 GHz
• Voltage rating: 1500 V
• Insertion loss: 0.15 dB

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle
• Contact termination: Solder
• Shield termination: Crimp
• Fastening type: Threaded
• Cable group compatibility: RG-8X, Belden 9258, LMR-240
• Mating cycles: 500

Material & Environmental Parameters:

• Center contact material: Brass
• Dielectric material: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
• Center contact plating: Gold
• RoHS3 compliance: Yes
• REACH affected: Yes

Both parts meet these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable. The primary differences are packaging format (bulk versus bag) and minor variations in body finish and operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol RF 082-6157 and 172219 are active product status components manufactured by Amphenol RF and are fully compliant with ROHS3 and REACH regulations. Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classifications.

Selection based on application requirements:

The 082-6157 is suitable for applications requiring bulk packaging and operating within the -40°C to 150°C temperature range with nickel body finish.

The 172219 is suitable for applications requiring bag packaging and extended operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C with white bronze body finish. The 172219 offers higher inventory availability with 1275 pieces in stock compared to 918 pieces for the 082-6157.

Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent for RF applications up to 11 GHz with 50 ohm impedance. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging format preference, operating temperature requirements, and body finish specifications for the intended application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 082-6157 and 172219 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are N Type connector plugs with identical electrical specifications: 50 ohm impedance, 11 GHz maximum frequency, 1500 V voltage rating, 0.15 dB insertion loss, and 500 mating cycles. They are electrically interchangeable in RF applications.

Q: Are the 082-6157 and 172219 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts feature identical mechanical specifications: right-angle free hanging (in-line) mounting, solder contact termination, crimp shield termination, threaded fastening, and compatibility with RG-8X, Belden 9258, and LMR-240 cable groups.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and bag packaging?

A: The 082-6157 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 172219 is supplied in bag packaging. Both contain the same connector with 1 end cap and 1 ferrule included. Packaging selection depends on inventory management and handling requirements for the application.

Q: Why do the operating temperature ranges differ?

A: The 082-6157 operates from -40°C to 150°C, while the 172219 operates from -65°C to 165°C. The 172219 provides extended temperature capability for applications requiring operation in more extreme thermal environments. Both parts are suitable for standard industrial and commercial RF applications within their respective temperature ranges.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 082-6157 and 172219 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH affected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. Both carry the same HTSUS code 8536.69.4010.

Q: What is the difference in body finish between these parts?

A: The 082-6157 features a nickel body finish, while the 172219 features a white bronze body finish. Both finishes provide corrosion resistance and are suitable for RF connector applications. Selection depends on environmental exposure and aesthetic requirements.

Q: Can I use these connectors with different cable types?

A: Both connectors are compatible with RG-8X, Belden 9258, and LMR-240 cable groups. Use only cables specified in the cable group compatibility list to maintain proper impedance matching and RF performance.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, which indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. Standard storage conditions are acceptable.
