Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 830A509 is determined by strict mechanical and electrical interface compatibility. The following parameters must match or be compatible:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Adapter Type: Plug to Plug
• Adapter Series: F to F
• Center Gender: Male to Male
• Style: Straight
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Threaded, Threaded

Material Compatibility Parameters:

• Body Material: Brass construction
• Body Finish: Nickel plating
• Center Contact Material: Brass

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The 830A509 operates at non-constant impedance with a maximum frequency of 500 MHz. Substitute parts must maintain mechanical interchangeability at the F-type threaded interface while supporting the same connector gender configuration and mounting method.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

830A509 Selection Criteria: The 830A509 is suitable for applications requiring an F-type plug-to-plug adapter with non-constant impedance operation up to 500 MHz. This part maintains RoHS compliance and is available in high inventory volume (907 units). The Winchester Interconnect part is appropriate for legacy system integration or applications where non-constant impedance characteristics are acceptable.

222156 Selection Criteria: The 222156 from Amphenol RF provides equivalent mechanical interchangeability with enhanced electrical performance specifications. This substitute offers 75-ohm impedance definition and extended frequency capability to 2 GHz, supporting broader RF application ranges. The 222156 maintains ROHS3 compliance with REACH status documentation and includes center contact nickel plating. Operating temperature range is specified as -40°C to 85°C. This part is available in higher inventory (1081 units) and is packaged in bag format.

Substitution Basis: Both parts satisfy the mechanical interface requirements for F-type threaded plug-to-plug connection with identical gender configuration and straight mounting orientation. Both maintain brass body construction with nickel finish and unlimited moisture sensitivity classification. Selection between these parts depends on impedance specification requirements and maximum operating frequency needs for the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 222156 directly replace the 830A509 in existing assemblies?

A: Mechanical interchangeability is confirmed. Both adapters feature identical F-type threaded plug-to-plug configuration with male-to-male center contact gender. Physical dimensions and mating interface geometry are compatible. Electrical performance differences exist: the 222156 specifies 75-ohm impedance and 2 GHz maximum frequency, while the 830A509 operates at non-constant impedance with 500 MHz maximum frequency. Application-specific impedance and frequency requirements determine substitution suitability.

Q: What are the material differences between these adapters?

A: Both parts use brass body construction with nickel finish and brass center contacts. The primary dielectric material difference is noted: the 830A509 uses Polypropylene (PP), while the 222156 uses Polyoxymethylene (POM) Acetal. This material difference may affect dielectric properties and temperature stability characteristics within their respective operating ranges.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 830A509 carries RoHS Compliant status. The 222156 carries ROHS3 Compliant status, representing a more recent compliance revision. Both parts meet RoHS requirements with unlimited moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1).

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The 830A509 packaging format is not specified in available documentation. The 222156 is supplied in bag packaging format. Packaging considerations may affect inventory management and component handling procedures.

Q: What is the frequency operating range difference?

A: The 830A509 supports operation to 500 MHz maximum frequency. The 222156 extends maximum frequency capability to 2 GHz. Applications requiring RF operation above 500 MHz require the 222156 or equivalent higher-frequency rated adapter.

Q: Does the 222156 include operating temperature specifications?

A: Yes. The 222156 specifies operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The 830A509 operating temperature range is not provided in available documentation.
