AMK-0000 D-Sub 9 Pin Male to RJ45 Female Adapter Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMK-0000 is a D-Sub 9 pin male to modular female jack (8p8c RJ45) adapter connector manufactured by CUI Devices. This adapter enables conversion between legacy D-Sub serial interfaces and modern RJ45 modular connections. The product is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing system maintenance and component sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AMK-0000 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Input connector must be D-Sub 9 pin male; output connector must be modular female jack 8p8c (RJ45)
• Electrical Compatibility: Both substitute parts maintain identical connector pin configurations and signal routing
• Environmental Rating: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) ensures equivalent performance in standard operating conditions
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance status ensures material composition compatibility with modern manufacturing and disposal standards

Two substitute parts are available from NorComp Inc., differentiated by color specification. Both maintain the same functional connector interface and environmental ratings as the original AMK-0000.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RJADK09P7080811 is the direct functional equivalent to AMK-0000, matching both the connector configuration and black color specification. This part is manufactured by NorComp Inc. under active product status with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring current manufacturing standards and supply chain availability.

RJADK09P7080831 provides identical electrical and mechanical compatibility with the exception of gray color specification. This substitute is suitable for applications where color differentiation is not a critical design parameter.

Both substitute parts maintain the same moisture sensitivity rating and ECCN classification as the original AMK-0000, confirming compatibility with existing system requirements and regulatory frameworks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJADK09P7080831 (gray) be used in place of AMK-0000 (black)?

A: Yes. The color difference does not affect electrical or mechanical function. Both parts provide identical D-Sub 9 pin male to RJ45 female jack conversion. Color selection depends on system documentation and visual identification requirements.

Q: What is the difference between ROHS3 and RoHS Compliant status?

A: Both designations indicate RoHS compliance. ROHS3 represents the current RoHS 3 directive standard (2015/863/EU), while RoHS Compliant indicates the original RoHS directive compliance. Both are functionally equivalent for component selection purposes.

Q: Are the NorComp substitutes electrically identical to the CUI Devices AMK-0000?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain the same D-Sub 9 pin male input and RJ45 female jack output configuration, ensuring signal compatibility and pin-to-pin equivalence.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) mean?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The part can be stored and handled under standard conditions without special moisture control measures.

Q: Why is the AMK-0000 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer (CUI Devices) has discontinued production. The NorComp substitutes provide active, currently manufactured alternatives with equivalent functionality.
