TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 413959-6 BNC Plug Coaxial Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 413959-6 is a BNC connector plug designed for 50-ohm coaxial applications. This component is a male pin, right-angle crimp connector with free-hanging (in-line) mounting configuration. The part is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of active equivalent components to maintain supply chain continuity and support ongoing system requirements. Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production, making substitute parts essential for procurement and system maintenance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 5413959-6 is the direct active substitute for the obsolete 413959-6 BNC connector plug. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The original part 413959-6 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The substitute 5413959-6 is active and currently available from the manufacturer, ensuring supply chain continuity.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: All critical electrical parameters (50-ohm impedance, 4 GHz maximum frequency, 500 V voltage rating) and mechanical parameters (BNC plug, male pin, right-angle crimp, free-hanging mounting, bayonet lock fastening) are identical between the original and substitute parts. Both connectors are compatible with RG-141, Belden 89907, and 9907 cable groups.

Environmental Performance: Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), mating cycle rating (500 cycles), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) are equivalent between both parts.

Regulatory Compliance: The substitute part 5413959-6 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant with undefined REACH status. For applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulations, the substitute part satisfies current compliance requirements.

Material Specification: The substitute part uses beryllium copper for the center contact material, compared to brass in the original part. Both materials are suitable for 50-ohm RF applications and support the specified electrical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5413959-6 directly replace the 413959-6 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 5413959-6 meets all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications of the 413959-6. Both parts are BNC male plug connectors with 50-ohm impedance, right-angle crimp termination, and free-hanging mounting. Cable compatibility (RG-141, Belden 89907, 9907) is identical.

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

A: The 413959-6 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The 5413959-6 is the active equivalent currently produced by TE Connectivity. The substitute also provides improved regulatory compliance (ROHS3 compliant versus RoHS non-compliant) and uses beryllium copper for the center contact instead of brass.

Q: Are the electrical performance characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 50-ohm impedance, support frequencies up to 4 GHz, have a 500 V voltage rating, and support 500 mating cycles. Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C) is identical.

Q: Does the center contact material change affect performance?

A: The beryllium copper center contact in the 5413959-6 is suitable for 50-ohm RF applications and maintains the specified electrical performance. Both brass and beryllium copper are standard materials for BNC connector contacts in this impedance class.

Q: Are there any packaging or inclusion differences?

A: Both parts include 3 pieces: 1 connector, 1 contact, and 1 ferrule. Packaging specifications are not differentiated in the provided data.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The 5413959-6 has 677 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The obsolete 413959-6 has 827 pieces in stock but is no longer manufactured.

Q: Are there any compliance considerations for new designs?

A: The 5413959-6 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, making it suitable for applications subject to these regulations. The obsolete 413959-6 is RoHS non-compliant and has undefined REACH status.
