Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1657261 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Modular output connector type: Must be Female Jack, 8p8c (RJ45)
• Environmental protection: Must maintain Dust Tight and Waterproof features
• Color specification: Black finish
• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact PLUSCON series
• Compliance: RoHS and REACH requirements

The substitute part 1414397 qualifies as a functional equivalent based on these parameters. While the input circular connector configuration differs (4-position versus unspecified position count on the main part), both adapters terminate to the same RJ45 jack standard, enabling substitution in applications where the circular input connector pin count is compatible with system requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1414397 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 1657261. Selection of this substitute is supported by:

Compliance & Regulatory Status: Part 1414397 maintains RoHS3 compliance and REACH affected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The main part's RoHS compliance is superseded by the substitute's ROHS3 certification.

Product Availability: The substitute part 1414397 carries Active product status with 1076 units in stock, ensuring supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete main part.

Functional Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical RJ45 jack output configuration, dust-tight and waterproof environmental protection, black finish, and MSL 1 rating. The substitute's right-angle feature provides additional mechanical flexibility for space-constrained installations.

Circular Connector Compatibility: Verify that the 4-position circular connector input on part 1414397 aligns with your system's circular connector pin count requirements before final selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1414397 directly replace the 1657261 in existing installations?

A: The 1414397 serves as the functional substitute for the obsolete 1657261, provided the circular connector input pin count (4-position on the substitute) is compatible with your system's circular connector output. Both parts deliver identical RJ45 jack termination and environmental protection ratings.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two adapter parts?

A: The main part 1657261 accepts a circular receptacle with unspecified pin count, while the substitute 1414397 is configured for 4-position circular connectors. The substitute includes a right-angle feature not present on the main part. Both terminate to 8p8c (RJ45) female jacks.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The substitute 1414397 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status, representing current regulatory standards. The main part's RoHS compliance is superseded by the substitute's enhanced certification level.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1414397 is supplied in Box packaging, with 1076 units available in current inventory.

Q: Are both parts suitable for dust-tight and waterproof applications?

A: Yes. Both the main part 1657261 and substitute 1414397 feature dust-tight and waterproof construction, maintaining identical environmental protection ratings for sealed enclosure applications.
