Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 (Primary Part)

The Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 is the active production part with current inventory availability. This part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The operating temperature range extends to 165°C, providing maximum thermal capability. This part is suitable for new designs and applications requiring the full temperature operating range.

TE Connectivity 1051001-1 (Parametric Equivalent - Obsolete Status)

The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications as a parametric equivalent. However, this part carries an obsolete product status, indicating it is no longer in active production. While 861 units are currently in stock, this part should not be selected for new designs or long-term supply chain planning. This part is suitable only for legacy system maintenance or repair applications where existing inventory is available.

Radiall R125325000W (Parametric Equivalent - Active Status)

The Radiall R125325000W is an active production part meeting all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part is ROHS3 compliant and provides 965 units in current inventory. The operating temperature maximum is specified at 105°C, which is lower than the Amphenol RF 901-9210-1. This part is suitable for applications with operating temperature requirements up to 105°C. The Radiall part is packaged in box format, differing from the bulk packaging of the Amphenol part.

Selection Criteria:

For applications requiring the full -65°C to 165°C operating temperature range, the Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 is the appropriate selection.

For applications with operating temperature requirements limited to -65°C to 105°C, the Radiall R125325000W provides an active production alternative with equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 is not recommended for new applications due to obsolete product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Radiall R125325000W be used as a direct substitute for the Amphenol RF 901-9210-1?

A: The Radiall R125325000W is a parametric equivalent for applications with operating temperatures up to 105°C. The Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 supports operation to 165°C. If your application requires operation above 105°C, the Radiall part is not suitable. If your application operates within the -65°C to 105°C range, the Radiall part provides equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Why is the TE Connectivity 1051001-1 listed as obsolete?

A: The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 carries an obsolete product status, indicating the manufacturer has discontinued active production. While inventory may be available from distributors, this part should not be specified for new designs or applications requiring long-term supply assurance.

Q: What are the key differences between these three parts?

A: All three parts share identical electrical specifications (SMA, 50 ohms, 18 GHz maximum frequency), mechanical mounting configurations (panel mount bulkhead with threaded fastening), and termination methods (solder). The primary differences are: (1) Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 operates to 165°C and is active production; (2) TE Connectivity 1051001-1 operates to 165°C but is obsolete; (3) Radiall R125325000W operates to 105°C and is active production.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. The Radiall R125325000W is supplied in box packaging. The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 packaging is not specified. Packaging format may affect inventory management and handling procedures but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do all three parts meet current regulatory compliance requirements?

A: The Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 and Radiall R125325000W are both ROHS3 compliant. The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 is RoHS compliant. The Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 and TE Connectivity 1051001-1 are both REACH affected. All three parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8536.69.4010 HTSUS code.

Q: What is the significance of the 500 mating cycle rating?

A: All three parts are rated for 500 mating cycles, indicating the number of times the connector can be mated and unmated while maintaining specified electrical and mechanical performance. This specification is identical across all substitute parts.

Q: Can I use the TE Connectivity 1051001-1 for new production?

A: The TE Connectivity 1051001-1 is not recommended for new production due to obsolete product status. New designs should specify either the Amphenol RF 901-9210-1 or Radiall R125325000W, both of which are active production parts with assured long-term availability.
