Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0 with the Amphenol RF 262120 is based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both components share identical specifications for connector style (MMCX), connector type (jack, female socket), impedance (50 ohms), contact termination (solder), shield termination (crimp), mounting type (panel mount), mounting feature (bulkhead front side nut), fastening type (snap-on), frequency maximum (6 GHz), voltage rating (170 V), and mating cycles (500). The cable group compatibility for the substitute part extends to include RG-178, 178A, 178B, 196, 196A, and M17/93-RG178, providing broader application flexibility compared to the original part's RG-178 and 196A specification. Both components feature identical materials: beryllium copper center contact, brass body with gold finish, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) dielectric. The substitute part maintains the same package contents: 1 connector, 1 contact, 1 ferrule, 1 lockwasher, and 1 nut.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol RF 262120 serves as a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0 MMCX connector jack. Selection of the substitute component is supported by the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The original part is classified as obsolete, while the substitute maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support.

Regulatory Compliance: The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the original part status is listed as not applicable. For applications subject to RoHS directives, the substitute provides compliant component selection.

REACH Compliance: The substitute part is designated as REACH Affected, providing explicit regulatory status clarity compared to the original part's vendor undefined designation.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical parameters including impedance, frequency rating, voltage rating, mating cycles, termination methods, and mounting configuration are identical between the original and substitute components.

Cable Compatibility: The substitute part supports an extended cable group range (RG-178, 178A, 178B, 196, 196A, M17/93-RG178) compared to the original specification (RG-178, 196A), providing greater application flexibility without compromising compatibility with the original cable specifications.

Material and Construction: Both components utilize identical materials and construction methods, ensuring electrical performance and mechanical durability equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 262120 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0?

A: Yes. The Amphenol RF 262120 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0 across all specified parameters. Both components are MMCX jack connectors with 50 ohm impedance, solder contact termination, crimp shield termination, panel mount configuration, and identical frequency, voltage, and mating cycle ratings.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by equivalence in the following parameters: connector style (MMCX), connector type (jack, female socket), impedance (50 ohms), contact termination (solder), shield termination (crimp), mounting type (panel mount), mounting feature (bulkhead front side nut), fastening type (snap-on), frequency maximum (6 GHz), voltage rating (170 V), and mating cycles (500).

Q: Does the substitute part support the same cable types as the original?

A: The substitute part supports all cable types compatible with the original component (RG-178, 196A) plus additional types (178A, 178B, 196, M17/93-RG178). This extended compatibility does not affect applications using the original cable specifications.

Q: What is the difference in product status between the two parts?

A: The original TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited availability. The Amphenol RF 262120 maintains active product status, ensuring current manufacturing, availability, and manufacturer technical support.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance certification and explicit REACH Affected designation, whereas the original part lists RoHS status as not applicable and REACH status as vendor undefined. For applications requiring regulatory compliance documentation, the substitute provides clearer compliance status.

Q: Are the material compositions identical?

A: Yes. Both components feature beryllium copper center contacts, brass bodies with gold finish, gold center contact plating, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) dielectric material.

Q: What is included in the package for each component?

A: Both the original and substitute components include identical package contents: 1 connector, 1 contact, 1 ferrule, 1 lockwasher, and 1 nut.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges specified for both parts?

A: The original TE Connectivity 1-1634006-0 specifies an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The substitute part does not provide an operating temperature specification in the available documentation.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for both components?

A: Both components carry Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.
