Equivalent & Substitute Parts for Winchester Interconnect 1317505

Part Overview

The Winchester Interconnect 1317505 is an adapter coaxial connector designed to convert between N Plug (male pin) and UHF Jack (female socket) configurations. This straight-style, free-hanging adapter operates at 50 Ohms impedance and is rated for frequencies up to 1 GHz. The part is currently active in production with 915 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for applications where the primary part is unavailable or when alternative sourcing is necessary.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for coaxial adapter connectors is determined by strict alignment of electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary criteria for equivalency are:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Adapter series configuration (N to UHF)
• Connector gender and pin orientation (N Plug male pin to UHF Jack female socket)
• Center gender conversion (Female to Male)
• Impedance rating (50 Ohms)
• Mounting style (Straight, Free Hanging)
• Fastening mechanism (Threaded connections)
• Body and contact materials (Brass body with nickel finish, brass center contact with gold plating)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Frequency maximum rating (provided the substitute meets or exceeds application requirements)
• Operating temperature range (provided the substitute accommodates the application environment)
• Dielectric material composition
• Manufacturer identity and part numbering
• Packaging format
• Compliance certifications (RoHS, REACH status)

The Amphenol RF part number 242155 qualifies as a substitute for Winchester Interconnect 1317505 because all mandatory parameters align identically, while allowable variation parameters either match or exceed the original specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Winchester Interconnect 1317505 is the primary specification when:

• Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part traceability is required
• Frequency operation is limited to 1 GHz or below
• Operating temperature range of -55°C to 100°C is sufficient
• Winchester Interconnect sourcing is preferred or contractually specified
• RoHS Compliant certification is the required standard

Amphenol RF 242155 is an acceptable substitute when:

• Winchester Interconnect 1317505 is unavailable or on extended lead time
• Application frequency requirements extend to 2.5 GHz
• Operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C is required
• ROHS3 Compliant certification meets or exceeds project requirements
• REACH compliance status is a project requirement
• Amphenol RF sourcing is acceptable within supply chain parameters
• Bag packaging format is compatible with assembly processes

Both parts are active products with current production status and equivalent electrical performance within their respective frequency and temperature ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Amphenol RF 242155 be used as a direct replacement for Winchester Interconnect 1317505?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical adapter series configuration (N to UHF), connector gender orientation, impedance rating (50 Ohms), and mechanical construction. The Amphenol RF part exceeds the Winchester specification in frequency rating (2.5 GHz vs. 1 GHz) and operating temperature range (-65°C to 165°C vs. -55°C to 100°C), making it suitable for applications within the original part's operating envelope.

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

A: The primary differences are: (1) Frequency maximum rating—Amphenol RF 242155 supports 2.5 GHz compared to 1 GHz for Winchester 1317505; (2) Operating temperature range—Amphenol RF extends to -65°C and 165°C versus -55°C and 100°C; (3) Dielectric material—Amphenol RF specifies PTFE while Winchester does not specify; (4) Compliance certifications—Amphenol RF carries ROHS3 and REACH status; (5) Packaging—Amphenol RF is supplied in bag format.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting Amphenol RF 242155 for Winchester 1317505?

A: No compatibility concerns exist for the electrical or mechanical interface. Both adapters maintain identical 50 Ohm impedance, N Plug to UHF Jack conversion, and threaded fastening. The Amphenol RF part's enhanced frequency and temperature ratings do not create incompatibility; they represent performance improvements within the same connector family.

Q: Does packaging format affect the substitution decision?

A: Packaging format (Winchester unspecified vs. Amphenol RF bag) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices. Bag packaging is standard for coaxial adapters and does not impact connector performance or reliability.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection is based on application requirements and sourcing strategy. If frequency operation is limited to 1 GHz and operating temperature range is -55°C to 100°C, either part is acceptable. If frequency extends beyond 1 GHz or temperature extremes are required, Amphenol RF 242155 is the appropriate choice. Both parts are active products with current production status.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant. Amphenol RF 242155 carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected designations, providing additional regulatory documentation. Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) classifications and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).
