Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1053222-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Connector style (SMA)
• Connector type (Receptacle, Female Socket)
• Impedance (50 Ohms)
• Frequency maximum rating (18 GHz)
• Voltage rating (335 V)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Contact termination method (Solder)
• Shield termination method (Solder)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount)
• Mounting feature (Bulkhead - Front or Rear Side Nut)
• Number of ports (1)

Material Parameters:

• Center contact material (Beryllium Copper)
• Center contact plating (Gold)
• Body material (Stainless Steel)
• Dielectric material (Polytetrafluoroethylene - PTFE)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

• Operating temperature range compatibility
• Mating cycles (500)
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1)
• RoHS compliance status
• REACH compliance status

The Amphenol RF 901-9220-SF meets all critical electrical, mechanical, and material specifications. Differences in product status (active versus obsolete) and maximum operating temperature (165°C versus 125°C) do not preclude substitution when the application operates within the lower temperature envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol RF 901-9220-SF is a direct functional equivalent to the TE Connectivity 1053222-1 for applications requiring SMA receptacle connectors with 50-ohm impedance, solder termination, and panel mount configuration.

Compliance Advantages: The 901-9220-SF holds active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. The part meets ROHS3 compliance, which supersedes the RoHS compliance of the original part. Both parts maintain REACH affected status with identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Thermal Capability: The substitute part operates across -65°C to 165°C, providing a 40°C higher maximum temperature rating than the original 1053222-1. This extended thermal range does not introduce incompatibility; applications operating within the original -65°C to 125°C envelope remain fully supported.

Mechanical and Electrical Equivalence: All critical mechanical parameters—mounting type, fastening method, bulkhead configuration, and port count—are identical. Electrical parameters including impedance, frequency rating, mating cycles, and dielectric material specifications are equivalent. Center contact material, plating, and body material specifications match exactly.

Supply Chain Continuity: With 1030 pieces in stock versus 932 pieces of the obsolete original part, the 901-9220-SF provides superior supply chain reliability for new production and field service applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 901-9220-SF directly replace the TE Connectivity 1053222-1 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 901-9220-SF meets all electrical, mechanical, and material specifications of the 1053222-1. Both parts are SMA receptacle connectors with identical 50-ohm impedance, solder termination, panel mount configuration, and 18 GHz frequency rating. Mechanical fit and electrical performance are equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference (obsolete versus active)?

A: The 1053222-1 is classified as obsolete, indicating TE Connectivity no longer manufactures or supports this part. The 901-9220-SF is active, meaning Amphenol RF continues production and provides ongoing technical support. For new designs and long-term supply requirements, the active substitute is the appropriate selection.

Q: Does the higher operating temperature rating of the 901-9220-SF affect compatibility?

A: No. The 901-9220-SF operates from -65°C to 165°C, compared to the original part's -65°C to 125°C range. This extended upper temperature limit does not create incompatibility. Applications designed for the original -65°C to 125°C envelope operate within the substitute's rated range and experience no adverse effects.

Q: Are the RoHS compliance levels compatible?

A: Yes. The 901-9220-SF meets ROHS3 compliance, which is a more recent and stringent standard than the RoHS compliance of the 1053222-1. ROHS3 compliance includes all requirements of earlier RoHS standards, ensuring regulatory equivalence and forward compatibility.

Q: What are the included components for each part?

A: Both the 1053222-1 and 901-9220-SF include three pieces: one connector, one lockwasher, and one nut. Installation and assembly procedures are identical.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging between these parts?

A: The 1053222-1 packaging specification is not provided in the available data. The 901-9220-SF is supplied in bulk packaging. For specific packaging requirements or custom configurations, consult the respective manufacturer's current product documentation.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in RF applications up to 18 GHz?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for operation up to 18 GHz with 50-ohm impedance. The beryllium copper center contact with gold plating and PTFE dielectric material ensure consistent RF performance across the frequency range. Mating cycle ratings (500 cycles) are identical.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level. Both parts can be stored indefinitely without moisture bake-out requirements prior to soldering, simplifying inventory management and assembly processes.

Q: Are the REACH and ECCN classifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical REACH affected status, ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8536.69.4010), ensuring equivalent regulatory and export compliance treatment.
