Amphenol RF 083-8SP-1006 UHF Connector Plug Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol RF 083-8SP-1006 is a UHF connector plug designed for male pin termination in free-hanging (in-line) configurations. This coaxial RF connector features crimp termination for both contact and shield, supporting cable groups RG-8, 8A, 9, 9A, 9B, 87, 213, 214, 225, 302, and 393. The connector operates at frequencies up to 300 MHz with a voltage rating of 500 V and maintains performance across an operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C. The part is currently active in production with 1295 pieces in stock. Equivalent substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part number is unavailable or when inventory requirements necessitate alternative stock sources.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol RF 083-8SP-1006 and 083-8SP-RFX are active production parts with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH compliance status. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical configurations, and material compositions, establishing them as direct parametric equivalents.

The 083-8SP-RFX offers higher current inventory availability at 1830 pieces compared to 1295 pieces for the 083-8SP-1006. The 083-8SP-RFX includes a ferrule component in its package, whereas the 083-8SP-1006 does not specify included components. This packaging difference does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility but may influence procurement decisions based on assembly requirements.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability, delivery requirements, and whether the included ferrule in the 083-8SP-RFX aligns with assembly specifications. Both parts maintain identical performance characteristics across all operating parameters and environmental conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 083-8SP-1006 and 083-8SP-RFX electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are UHF connector plugs with identical electrical specifications including 300 MHz maximum frequency, 500 V voltage rating, non-constant impedance, and 500 mating cycles. They support the same cable groups and operate across the same temperature range.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is packaging. The 083-8SP-RFX includes a ferrule component (2 pcs total: 1 connector, 1 ferrule), while the 083-8SP-1006 does not specify included components. Inventory levels also differ, with the 083-8SP-RFX having higher stock availability.

Q: Can I use the 083-8SP-RFX as a direct replacement for the 083-8SP-1006?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical and electrical parameters. The 083-8SP-RFX can be used in any application requiring the 083-8SP-1006 without modification to circuit design or mechanical assembly, provided the included ferrule does not conflict with existing assembly specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 083-8SP-1006 and 083-8SP-RFX are ROHS3 compliant, REACH affected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS codes.

Q: What cable types are compatible with these connectors?

A: Both connectors support RG-8, 8A, 9, 9A, 9B, 87, 213, 214, 225, 302, and 393 cable groups through crimp termination.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: Both parts operate across -65°C to 165°C, suitable for industrial and military applications requiring extended temperature performance.

Q: Are these connectors suitable for high-frequency applications?

A: These connectors are rated for frequencies up to 300 MHz. Applications requiring higher frequency operation require alternative connector designs.
