AMK-0001 D-Sub to RJ45 Adapter Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMK-0001 is a D-Sub 9-pin female to RJ45 modular jack adapter manufactured by CUI Devices. This connector adapter converts D-Sub 9-pin female connections to 8p8c (RJ45) female jack configurations in black finish. 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-0001 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Both adapter ends must match exactly—D-Sub 9-pin female input and 8p8c (RJ45) female jack output
• Color: Black finish to maintain visual consistency with original specifications
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance status and MSL rating must be equivalent or superior
• Export Classification: ECCN designation must remain consistent

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: RJADK09S7080811 (black) and RJADK09S7080831 (gray). The black variant RJADK09S7080811 provides direct functional and aesthetic equivalence to the AMK-0001.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: RJADK09S7080811 (NorComp Inc.) is the direct equivalent to AMK-0001. This part maintains identical connector configuration, color specification, and environmental ratings while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance, which exceeds the original RoHS Compliant designation.

Alternative Substitute: RJADK09S7080831 (NorComp Inc.) provides identical electrical and mechanical compatibility with the exception of gray finish instead of black. This part is suitable for applications where color differentiation is not a functional requirement.

Both substitute parts are manufactured by NorComp Inc., carry active product status, and maintain full compliance with export classifications and environmental standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJADK09S7080831 (gray) be used in place of AMK-0001 (black)?

A: RJADK09S7080831 provides complete electrical and mechanical compatibility. The gray finish is the only difference. Selection depends on whether color specification is a functional or aesthetic requirement in your application.

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

A: Both designations indicate RoHS compliance. ROHS3 represents a more recent compliance standard. RJADK substitute parts meet the newer standard, which is compatible with systems designed for the original RoHS Compliant specification.

Q: Are the connector pin configurations identical between AMK-0001 and RJADK09S7080811?

A: Yes. Both parts convert D-Sub 9-pin female to 8p8c (RJ45) female jack with identical pin mapping and electrical characteristics.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these adapters?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level, meaning these adapters have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage or handling.

Q: Can I use these adapters in high-temperature environments?

A: The provided specifications do not include temperature operating range data. Consult detailed datasheets for thermal performance requirements specific to your application.
