Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Amphenol RF 901-9864 are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution criteria are strictly limited to the following parameters:

Connector Style (RP-SMA), Connector Type (Receptacle, Male Pin), Impedance (50 Ohms), Mounting Type (Board Edge, End Launch), Contact Termination (Solder), Shield Termination (Solder), Frequency Maximum (18 GHz), Operating Temperature Range (-65°C ~ 165°C), Mating Cycles (500), Number of Ports (1), Fastening Type (Threaded), Dielectric Material (PTFE), Center Contact Material (Brass), Body Material (Brass), Housing Color (Gold), Body Finish (Gold), Center Contact Plating (Gold), RoHS Status (ROHS3 Compliant), and Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 - Unlimited).

Parts meeting all these electrical and mechanical specifications are classified as parametric equivalents and direct substitutes. Packaging format differences do not affect functional substitution capability.
