TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 227222-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 227222-1 is a BNC connector jack designed for coaxial RF applications. This female socket connector operates at 50 ohms impedance and is configured for panel mount, through-hole solder termination with bulkhead front-side nut mounting. The connector is currently active in production and maintains 1103 pieces in new original stock inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for component procurement, inventory management, or design flexibility across compatible applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 227222-1 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. The primary substitution criteria include connector style (BNC), connector type (jack, female socket), impedance (50 ohms), mounting configuration (panel mount, through hole), termination method (solder), and fastening mechanism (bayonet lock). All substitute parts maintain identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), voltage rating (500 V), and mating cycle specifications (500 cycles).

The substitute parts identified are:

5227222-1 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): Matches all core electrical and mechanical parameters. Differs in packaging (bulk versus standard) and regulatory compliance status (RoHS Compliant, REACH Affected).

031-5493 (Amphenol RF): Matches core connector style, type, impedance, mounting, and termination parameters. Operates within the same temperature and voltage specifications. Differs in maximum frequency rating (1 GHz versus 4 GHz), center contact plating (gold versus tin), dielectric material (polypropylene versus polymethylpentene), body material specification (zinc die cast versus zinc), and insertion loss specification (0.2 dB provided).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

227222-1 (Primary Part): Select this part for applications requiring maximum frequency operation to 4 GHz. This part is active in production with 1103 pieces available in new original stock. RoHS status is not applicable; REACH status is vendor undefined.

5227222-1 (Direct Substitute): This part provides identical electrical and mechanical performance to the 227222-1 across all core parameters. The primary distinction is regulatory compliance: this part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected. Select this substitute when RoHS compliance is a design requirement. Bulk packaging is provided. Inventory availability is 1905 pieces in new original stock.

031-5493 (Cross-Manufacturer Substitute): This Amphenol RF part maintains compatibility with the core BNC jack, female socket, 50-ohm, panel-mount, solder-termination specification. However, this part operates at a maximum frequency of 1 GHz, which is below the 4 GHz specification of the primary part. Select this substitute only for applications with frequency requirements not exceeding 1 GHz. This part is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected. Inventory availability is 961 pieces in new original stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5227222-1 be used as a direct replacement for 227222-1?

A: Yes. The 5227222-1 maintains identical electrical and mechanical parameters including connector style, impedance, mounting configuration, termination method, operating temperature, voltage rating, and mating cycles. The primary difference is regulatory compliance status (RoHS Compliant, REACH Affected) and packaging format (bulk).

Q: What is the key limitation of the 031-5493 substitute?

A: The 031-5493 operates at a maximum frequency of 1 GHz, compared to 4 GHz for the 227222-1. This part is suitable only for applications with frequency requirements not exceeding 1 GHz. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain compatible.

Q: Are all three parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical connector style (BNC), connector type (jack, female socket), mounting type (panel mount, through hole), and fastening mechanism (bayonet lock). Physical installation and PCB layout compatibility are equivalent.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The 227222-1 is supplied with includes (1 connector, 1 lockwasher, 1 nut). The 5227222-1 and 031-5493 are supplied in bulk packaging without additional components.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, select based on frequency requirements. If operation to 4 GHz is required, use 227222-1 or 5227222-1. If operation is limited to 1 GHz or below, 031-5493 is acceptable. For RoHS-compliant designs, use 5227222-1.

Q: Do all parts meet the same environmental specifications?

A: Yes. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), maintain the same voltage rating (500 V), support 500 mating cycles, and have moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited).
