• Connector Type: Jack, Female Socket (identical mating configuration)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (identical electrical characteristic)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (identical PCB integration method)
• Contact Termination: Solder (identical connection method)
• Shield Termination: Solder (identical shielding connection)
• Frequency - Max: 6 GHz (identical operational bandwidth)
• Number of Ports: 1 (identical port count)
• Fastening Type: Snap-On (identical mechanical interface)

Material Equivalence Parameters:

• Center Contact Material: Beryllium Copper
• Body Material: Brass
• Dielectric Material: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)

The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P meets all functional and material equivalence criteria, establishing it as a direct substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 in QMA jack connector applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1. Both components share identical QMA connector specifications, impedance characteristics, mounting configurations, and material compositions.

Compliance Considerations:

The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P maintains ROHS3 compliance, which supersedes the RoHS compliance of the original part. Both components are REACH Affected and classified under identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) codes, ensuring regulatory alignment for procurement and export purposes.

Performance Advantages:

The substitute part provides enhanced operational specifications compared to the original component. The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P supports an extended operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 165°C versus -40°C ~ 80°C), higher voltage rating (480 V versus 335 V), and increased mating cycle durability (500 cycles versus 100 cycles). These enhanced ratings provide greater design margin and extended component lifecycle in demanding applications.

Availability and Product Status:

The original TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 is classified as obsolete with existing inventory of 64,420 pieces. The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P is an active product with current inventory of 12,700 pieces, ensuring ongoing availability for new designs and system replacements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P directly replace the TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes. Both components are QMA jack connectors with identical 50 Ohm impedance, through-hole solder termination, and snap-on fastening. The physical and electrical interfaces are equivalent, allowing direct PCB footprint compatibility without design modification.

Q: What are the key differences between these two QMA jack connectors?

A: The primary differences are product status and enhanced performance specifications. The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P is an active product with superior operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 165°C), higher voltage rating (480 V), and increased mating cycle rating (500 cycles). The original TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 is obsolete.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: Both components are REACH Affected and classified under identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) codes. The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P carries ROHS3 compliance, which is the current regulatory standard superseding the RoHS compliance of the original part. Both maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification.

Q: What is the insertion loss specification for the Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P?

A: The insertion loss specification for the Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P is not provided in the component documentation. The original TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 specifies 0.25 dB insertion loss at the rated frequency.

Q: Are both connectors suitable for high-frequency RF applications?

A: Yes. Both components are rated for maximum frequency operation of 6 GHz and are designed for 50 Ohm RF impedance matching. The QMA connector style and PTFE dielectric material support consistent RF performance across the operational bandwidth.

Q: What is the mating cycle difference, and does it affect component selection?

A: The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P supports 500 mating cycles compared to 100 cycles for the original part. This enhanced durability rating provides extended component lifecycle in applications requiring frequent connector engagement and disengagement.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in new designs?

A: Yes. The Amphenol RF 930-116J-51P is recommended for new designs due to its active product status, enhanced performance specifications, and current availability. The TE Connectivity AMP 1408332-1 is obsolete and should be replaced with the Amphenol RF equivalent in all new applications.
