Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 5413558-5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Style: BNC
• Connector Type: Jack, Female Socket
• Impedance: 75 Ohms
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Contact Termination: Solder
• Shield Termination: Solder
• Frequency - Max: 2 GHz
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 85°C
• Voltage Rating: 500 V
• Mating Cycles: 500
• Fastening Type: Bayonet Lock
• Number of Ports: 1

The identified substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility across all mandatory parameters. Variations in secondary attributes such as center contact material, body finish, and regulatory compliance status do not affect functional interchangeability in the specified application envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1274127-1 Selection Criteria: The 1274127-1 is an active production equivalent with full electrical and mechanical compatibility to the 5413558-5. This part maintains all critical RF and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is RoHS non-compliance status and use of phosphor bronze center contact material in place of beryllium copper. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is not a contractual or regulatory requirement.

413558-2 Selection Criteria: The 413558-2 is an active production equivalent with full electrical and mechanical compatibility to the 5413558-5. This part maintains all critical RF and mechanical specifications. The primary distinctions are RoHS non-compliance status and tin-lead body finish in place of nickel. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is not a contractual or regulatory requirement and tin-lead finish compatibility is established.

Compliance Considerations: The main part 5413558-5 carries RoHS Compliant certification. Both substitute parts are RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS directives or customer specifications requiring RoHS compliance must retain the original 5413558-5 or identify alternative suppliers offering RoHS-compliant BNC jack connectors with identical electrical and mechanical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1274127-1 or 413558-2 be used as direct replacements for 5413558-5 in existing designs?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical parameters including impedance, frequency response, operating temperature, voltage rating, and mating cycles. Direct substitution is supported from a functional standpoint. Compliance verification against project-specific requirements (RoHS, REACH, or other standards) is necessary before implementation.

Q: What is the difference between the center contact materials in these parts?

A: The 5413558-5 and 413558-2 use beryllium copper center contacts, while the 1274127-1 uses phosphor bronze. Both materials provide equivalent electrical performance within the specified 2 GHz frequency range and 500-cycle mating life. Material selection does not affect RF impedance or signal integrity in this application.

Q: Are there differences in body finish between these connectors?

A: The 5413558-5 and 1274127-1 feature nickel body finish. The 413558-2 features tin-lead body finish. Both finishes provide equivalent corrosion resistance and environmental protection. Finish selection does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the main part 5413558-5 marked as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. The identified substitute parts 1274127-1 and 413558-2 are active production items that maintain full compatibility, enabling continued sourcing and design continuity.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance differences?

A: RoHS compliance restricts the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The main part 5413558-5 is RoHS compliant, while substitutes 1274127-1 and 413558-2 are non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements must use RoHS-compliant alternatives or obtain exemptions.

Q: Are these connectors suitable for high-frequency RF applications?

A: All three parts are rated for maximum frequency of 2 GHz and maintain 75-ohm impedance across this range. They are suitable for RF applications within this frequency envelope, including video, CATV, and instrumentation applications operating at or below 2 GHz.

Q: What is the mating cycle rating and what does it indicate?

A: All three parts are rated for 500 mating cycles. This specification indicates the connector can withstand 500 complete insertion and withdrawal cycles while maintaining electrical and mechanical integrity. This rating applies to normal use conditions within the specified operating temperature range.

Q: Can these connectors be used in applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Only the 5413558-5 carries RoHS Compliant certification. For applications with RoHS compliance requirements, the 5413558-5 must be specified. The substitute parts 1274127-1 and 413558-2 are RoHS non-compliant and are not suitable for such applications unless alternative RoHS-compliant sources are identified.
