Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete TE Connectivity 413590-8 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector Style: BNC (bayonet lock fastening)
• Connector Type: Jack, Female Socket
• Impedance: 75 Ohms
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount with Bulkhead - Front Side Nut configuration
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Shield Termination: Crimp
• Voltage Rating: 500 V
• Mating Cycles: 500

Substitute Parts Identified:

1. Amphenol RF 031-71016 (Direct Manufacturer Equivalent) - Active product status with enhanced frequency capability (4 GHz) and extended cable group compatibility. ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected.

2. Amphenol RF 031-70016 (Similar Manufacturer Part) - Active product status with dual termination capability (Crimp or Solder) and extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 165°C). ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected.

Both substitute parts maintain the core electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct functional replacement while offering improved specifications and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol RF 031-71016 is the primary direct equivalent for the obsolete TE Connectivity 413590-8. This part maintains all core electrical and mechanical parameters while offering active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH compliance. The enhanced frequency capability (4 GHz versus 2 GHz) and expanded cable group compatibility provide additional system flexibility without compromising the original design specifications.

Amphenol RF 031-70016 serves as an alternative substitute with extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 165°C) and dual termination capability (Crimp or Solder). This part is suitable for applications requiring broader thermal performance or flexible termination methods. Both Amphenol RF parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, addressing regulatory compliance requirements absent in the obsolete TE Connectivity part.

Selection between the two Amphenol RF substitutes depends on application-specific requirements: choose 031-71016 for standard crimp-only termination with standard temperature range, or choose 031-70016 for extended temperature operation or solder termination flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 031-71016 directly replace the TE Connectivity 413590-8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 031-71016 maintains identical core specifications: BNC jack female socket, 75 Ohms impedance, panel mount bulkhead configuration, crimp termination, 500 V rating, and 500 mating cycles. The connector is mechanically and electrically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between Amphenol RF 031-71016 and 031-70016?

A: The primary differences are contact termination method and operating temperature range. The 031-71016 supports crimp termination only with unspecified operating temperature. The 031-70016 supports both crimp and solder termination with an extended operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C. Both maintain identical impedance, mounting configuration, and voltage rating.

Q: Are there cable compatibility differences between the substitute parts and the original?

A: Yes. The TE Connectivity 413590-8 supports RG-179 and RG-187 cable groups. Both Amphenol RF substitutes support expanded cable compatibility including RG-179, 179A, 179B, 187, 187A, Belden 9221, and M17/94-RG179. This expanded compatibility does not restrict use with the original cable groups.

Q: What is the significance of the frequency rating difference (2 GHz versus 4 GHz)?

A: The substitute parts are rated for 4 GHz maximum frequency, compared to 2 GHz for the original part. This represents enhanced frequency capability. For applications operating at or below 2 GHz, both parts perform identically. For applications requiring frequencies between 2 GHz and 4 GHz, the substitute parts provide extended operational capability.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet current regulatory compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both Amphenol RF substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, addressing current regulatory standards. The original TE Connectivity 413590-8 is RoHS non-compliant with undefined REACH status, making the substitutes preferable for new designs and procurement requiring regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the insertion loss difference between the original and substitute parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 413590-8 specifies 0.15 dB insertion loss. Both Amphenol RF substitutes specify 0.2 dB insertion loss. This 0.05 dB difference is within typical system tolerances for 75 Ohm coaxial connector applications.

Q: Are the substitute parts available in the same packaging as the original?

A: The TE Connectivity 413590-8 includes 6 pieces per package (1 Connector, 1 Contact, 1 Ferrule, 1 Gasket, 1 Lockwasher, 1 Nut). The Amphenol RF 031-71016 includes 5 pieces per package (1 Connector, 1 Contact, 1 Ferrule, 1 Lockwasher, 1 Nut). The Amphenol RF 031-70016 includes 3 pieces per package (1 Connector, 1 Lockwasher, 1 Nut). Package contents differ; verify component requirements for your application.
