Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Winchester Interconnect 1309505 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Adapter Type: Plug to Plug
• Conversion Type: Between Series
• Adapter Series: SMA to N
• Center Gender: Male to Male
• Convert From: N Plug, Male Pin (or SMA Plug, Male Pin for reverse-direction adapters)
• Convert To: SMA Plug, Male Pin (or N Plug, Male Pin for reverse-direction adapters)
• Style: Straight
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Threaded, Threaded
• Category: Coaxial Connectors (RF)

The Pomona Electronics 4296 qualifies as a substitute part because it maintains functional equivalence through identical adapter configuration, connector gender, and mounting characteristics. The directional orientation (SMA to N versus N to SMA) does not affect substitution validity for bidirectional adapter applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Winchester Interconnect 1309505:

• Active product status with established supply (858 units in stock)
• RoHS Compliant certification
• Suitable for applications where nickel-plated brass construction meets environmental and mechanical requirements
• MSL rating of 1 indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints

Pomona Electronics 4296:

• Active product status with comparable supply (946 units in stock)
• ROHS3 Compliant certification (enhanced RoHS standard)
• Beryllium copper body with gold plating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity
• Specified impedance of 50 Ohms and maximum frequency of 12.4 GHz support high-frequency RF applications
• Operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C accommodates extended environmental conditions
• PTFE dielectric material supports controlled electrical characteristics

Both parts satisfy the core functional requirements of N Plug to SMA Plug male-to-male adapter conversion. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements regarding material composition, frequency performance, temperature range, and compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Pomona Electronics 4296 directly replace the Winchester Interconnect 1309505?

A: Yes. Both adapters maintain identical functional specifications for plug-to-plug conversion between N and SMA series connectors with male-to-male center gender configuration. The directional labeling (SMA to N versus N to SMA) does not affect substitution validity for bidirectional adapter applications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two adapters?

A: The primary differences are material composition and specified performance parameters. The Pomona 4296 features beryllium copper construction with gold plating, specified 50 Ohm impedance, 12.4 GHz maximum frequency, and -65°C to 165°C operating temperature range. The Winchester 1309505 uses brass with nickel plating and does not specify these performance parameters.

Q: Which adapter should be selected for high-frequency RF applications?

A: The Pomona Electronics 4296 is specified for operation to 12.4 GHz with defined 50 Ohm impedance and PTFE dielectric material, making it suitable for controlled RF performance requirements. The Winchester 1309505 does not specify frequency or impedance parameters.

Q: Are both adapters RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Winchester 1309505 is RoHS Compliant. The Pomona Electronics 4296 is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an enhanced RoHS standard.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The Winchester 1309505 packaging is not specified. The Pomona Electronics 4296 is supplied in Bulk packaging.

Q: Do these adapters have moisture sensitivity concerns?

A: The Winchester 1309505 has MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints. The Pomona Electronics 4296 has MSL rating of Not Applicable, also indicating no moisture sensitivity concerns.
