• Fastening type must be Bayonet Lock
• Contact and shield termination must be Solder

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting type must be Panel Mount, Through Hole, Right Angle
• Mounting feature must be Bulkhead - Front Side Nut
• Number of ports must be 1

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

• Voltage rating must be 200 V or greater
• Mating cycles must be 500 or greater
• Operating temperature range must encompass -20°C ~ 85°C or be compatible with this range
• RoHS compliance status must be current (RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant)

The Molex 0731375003 meets all specified electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0731375003 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Amphenol ICC 456-117NF based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both components maintain identical BNC jack female socket configuration with 50 Ohm impedance, solder termination, and bayonet lock fastening. Mating cycle ratings are equivalent at 500 cycles.

Mechanical Compatibility: Panel mount, through-hole, right-angle mounting with bulkhead front-side nut configuration is identical. Physical form factor and PCB interface are compatible.

Compliance Status: The Molex 0731375003 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment. The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF, while RoHS Compliant, is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The Molex component provides active product support and supply chain continuity.

Material Compatibility: Zinc alloy body material and polypropylene dielectric in the Molex component are functionally equivalent to the zinc die-cast body and polyester dielectric of the Amphenol component. Gold and tin center contact plating in the Molex component exceeds the gold-only plating of the original part.

Supply Availability: The Molex 0731375003 is in active production with 11,799 pieces in current inventory, compared to the Amphenol ICC 456-117NF which is obsolete with limited remaining stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0731375003 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 456-117NF in existing designs?

A: Yes. The Molex 0731375003 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. BNC connector style, female socket type, 50 Ohm impedance, solder termination, panel mount right-angle configuration, and bayonet lock fastening are identical. PCB footprint and mounting interface are compatible.

Q: What are the differences in dielectric material between the two parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF uses polyester dielectric, while the Molex 0731375003 uses polypropylene (PP). Both materials are suitable for RF applications at 50 Ohms and provide equivalent electrical performance in this connector class.

Q: Does the Molex part include any additional components?

A: Yes. The Molex 0731375003 is supplied with three components: the connector, one lockwasher, and one nut. The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF specification does not indicate included components. Verify assembly requirements for your specific application.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF packaging is not specified in available documentation. The Molex 0731375003 is supplied in tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Are there any temperature range limitations when substituting?

A: The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF operates from -20°C to 85°C. The Molex 0731375003 operating temperature range is not specified in provided data. Confirm that your application temperature requirements fall within the Amphenol specification range, and contact the manufacturer if extended temperature operation is required.

Q: What is the compliance status difference between the two parts?

A: The Amphenol ICC 456-117NF is RoHS Compliant. The Molex 0731375003 is ROHS3 Compliant, representing current regulatory standards. Both parts meet RoHS requirements; the Molex component reflects the latest compliance designation.

Q: Is the Molex 0731375003 suitable for new design implementations?

A: Yes. The Molex 0731375003 is an active product with current manufacturing support. It is suitable for both replacement of obsolete Amphenol ICC 456-117NF components and for new design implementations requiring BNC jack female socket 50 Ohm connectors with panel mount right-angle solder termination.
