Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 172142 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 5225699-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The Amphenol RF 172142 meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. Both connectors feature identical N Type plug configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, crimp termination for contact and shield, threaded fastening, and operating specifications. The substitute part exceeds the voltage rating and maintains equivalent frequency response to 11 GHz.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference between the two parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 5225699-1 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The Amphenol RF 172142 is classified as active, confirming ongoing production, supply chain availability, and manufacturer support. For new designs and long-term production requirements, the active substitute part is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are there cable compatibility differences between these connectors?

A: The TE Connectivity 5225699-1 is specified for RG-142, 142A, and 142B cables. The Amphenol RF 172142 supports RG-55, 142, 223, and 400 cables. The substitute part maintains compatibility with the original cable specifications while offering expanded cable options. Cable selection must be verified against specific application requirements.

Q: How do the voltage ratings compare, and does this affect substitution?

A: The TE Connectivity 5225699-1 is rated for 1000 V, while the Amphenol RF 172142 is rated for 1500 V. The higher voltage rating of the substitute part does not create incompatibility; it establishes an additional safety margin for electrical applications. Substitution is valid for applications operating at or below 1000 V.
