Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Phoenix Contact 2885595 is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Adapter Type: Plug to Jack configuration
• Connector Series: SMA to SMA (same series conversion)
• Center Gender: Female to Male
• Input Connector: SMA Plug with Male Pin
• Output Connector: SMA Jack with Female Socket (dual configuration)
• Style: T-Shape in-line adapter
• Frequency Rating: Minimum 2.5 GHz capability
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C range
• Mounting: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Compliance: RoHS Compliant

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Ingress Protection: IP20 or equivalent
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 or better

No substitute parts have been identified in the provided data. Equivalent components must match all primary substitution criteria to ensure functional and mechanical compatibility within RF coaxial connector applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 2885595 is classified as Obsolete. For applications currently utilizing this component, procurement strategy should prioritize existing inventory while it remains available. The part carries RoHS Compliance certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing.

When substitute components are required, selection must be based strictly on matching the specified adapter configuration (SMA Plug to SMA Jack, T-Shape, in-line mounting) and maintaining the 2.5 GHz frequency capability and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. RoHS Compliance status should be verified for any alternative component to ensure regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes the Phoenix Contact 2885595 suitable for RF applications? A: The adapter operates at frequencies up to 2.5 GHz with a T-shaped, in-line configuration that maintains impedance characteristics required for coaxial RF signal transmission. The SMA connector series is a standard in RF applications requiring compact, threaded connections.

Q: Can this adapter be used in applications requiring higher frequency operation? A: No. The 2.5 GHz maximum frequency rating is a fixed specification. Applications requiring higher frequency capability require components with higher frequency ratings.

Q: What is the significance of the Female to Male center gender configuration? A: This configuration allows the adapter to convert an SMA Plug (Male Pin) input to an SMA Jack (Female Socket) output. This specific gender arrangement is critical for mechanical and electrical compatibility with mating connectors in the system.

Q: Is the Phoenix Contact 2885595 suitable for outdoor or harsh environment applications? A: The IP20 ingress protection rating indicates protection against solid objects larger than 12mm but limited protection against moisture. Applications in harsh or outdoor environments may require components with higher ingress protection ratings.

Q: What does the T-Shape style indicate about mounting? A: The T-Shape indicates an in-line, free-hanging configuration where the adapter connects perpendicular connectors or provides a right-angle transition between coaxial cable assemblies.

Q: Are there any temperature limitations for this adapter? A: The operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C. Applications outside this range require components with extended temperature specifications.
