Amphenol RF 901-9211 SMA Coaxial Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol RF 901-9211 is an SMA connector receptacle designed for RF coaxial applications requiring 50-ohm impedance. This female socket connector features a solder cup termination and panel mount configuration with bulkhead front-side nut fastening. The part is classified as Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant with REACH compliance. Substitute parts are necessary when inventory constraints exist, when specific finish requirements differ from the primary specification, or when alternative manufacturer sourcing is required while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Amphenol RF 901-9211 are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. All substitute connectors must maintain the following critical parameters: SMA connector style, female socket receptacle type, 50-ohm impedance, solder cup contact termination, solder shield termination, panel mount configuration with bulkhead front-side nut, threaded fastening, 18 GHz maximum frequency, single port configuration, beryllium copper center contact material, PTFE dielectric material, -65°C to 165°C operating temperature range, 500 mating cycles, and RoHS3 compliance with REACH affected status.

The substitute parts listed are manufactured by Cinch Connectivity Solutions and are designated as Cinch part numbers 142-0701-401, 142-0701-406, and 142-0701-411. These parts are functionally equivalent to the Amphenol RF 901-9211 and differ only in body material finish specifications and housing color, which do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in standard RF applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three Cinch Connectivity Solutions substitute parts (142-0701-401, 142-0701-406, and 142-0701-411) are electrically and mechanically equivalent to the Amphenol RF 901-9211 for RF coaxial connector applications. Each substitute maintains full compliance with RoHS3 and REACH requirements, ensuring regulatory compatibility across all sourcing options.

Selection between substitute parts should be based on finish requirements specific to the application. Cinch part 142-0701-401 and 142-0701-411 feature gold body finish matching the Amphenol RF 901-9211 specification. Cinch part 142-0701-406 features nickel body finish with silver housing color, suitable for applications where alternative finish specifications are acceptable.

All substitute parts are Active product status with confirmed inventory availability. The electrical performance, impedance characteristics, frequency response, temperature operating range, and mating cycle specifications are identical across all options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the Cinch 142-0701 series connectors electrically compatible with the Amphenol RF 901-9211?

A: Yes. All three Cinch substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications including 50-ohm impedance, 18 GHz maximum frequency, beryllium copper center contacts with gold plating, PTFE dielectric material, and solder cup termination. Electrical performance is equivalent across all options.

Q: What is the difference between the three Cinch substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are cosmetic and material finish specifications. Cinch 142-0701-401 and 142-0701-411 feature gold body finish and gold housing color. Cinch 142-0701-406 features nickel body finish and silver housing color. All three maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Can I substitute the Amphenol RF 901-9211 with any of these Cinch parts in my existing design?

A: Yes.
