Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ARJ11E-MBSC-A-B-GL2 is determined by alignment across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility: Connector type (RJ45), port count (1), application support (10/100/1000 Base-TX with AutoMDIX), and shielding configuration (shielded with EMI finger).

Mechanical Compatibility: Through-hole mounting, 90° right-angle orientation, solder termination, board lock feature, and tab direction (down).

Environmental & Compliance: Operating temperature range (0°C ~ 70°C), RoHS3 compliance, MSL rating (1), and contact finish (gold).

Acceptable Variations: Number of cores per jack (12 vs. 8), height above board (within 0.01" tolerance), contact finish thickness, and specific application designation (Base-TX vs. Base-T) when electrical performance remains equivalent.

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 (same manufacturer, same series) and A60-113-331P432 (alternative manufacturer, Mercury United Electronics).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2: This substitute maintains identical specifications to the main part within the ARJ11E series from Abracon LLC. Both parts share the same height above board, contact finish thickness, and core count variation (8 cores). Selection of this substitute is appropriate when supply of the ARJ11E-MBSC-A-B-GL2 is constrained. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating 1, ensuring equivalent environmental performance.

A60-113-331P432: This substitute from Mercury United Electronics provides functional equivalence for 10/100/1000 Ethernet applications with AutoMDIX. The primary difference is the application designation (Base-T vs. Base-TX) and a 0.01" reduction in height above board (14.69mm vs. 13.84mm). Contact finish thickness is increased to 15.0µin, providing enhanced durability. This part is suitable when cross-manufacturer substitution is acceptable and the reduced height does not conflict with board layout constraints. ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating 1 are maintained.

Both substitutes are active products with current inventory availability and meet all compliance requirements of the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 be used as a direct replacement for ARJ11E-MBSC-A-B-GL2?

A: Yes. Both parts are from the same manufacturer and series, with identical mounting, orientation, termination, and environmental specifications. The core count difference (8 vs. 12) does not affect electrical performance for standard 10/100/1000 Base-TX applications.

Q: What is the difference between Base-TX and Base-T applications?

A: Both designations support 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet with AutoMDIX. Base-TX and Base-T refer to transmission standards; both are compatible with standard Ethernet infrastructure. The A60-113-331P432 operates within the same temperature and compliance parameters as the main part.

Q: Does the 0.01" height difference of A60-113-331P432 affect PCB layout compatibility?

A: The A60-113-331P432 is 0.01" shorter (14.69mm vs. 13.84mm). Verify that this reduced height does not conflict with component placement, clearance requirements, or mechanical constraints in your specific board design.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. ARJ11E-MBSC-A-B-GL2, ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2, and A60-113-331P432 are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity).

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: ARJ11E-MBSC-A-B-GL2 packaging is not specified. ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 and A60-113-331P432 are supplied in tray packaging.

Q: Can I mix these parts within the same assembly?

A: All three parts are mechanically and electrically compatible for 10/100/1000 Base-TX/Base-T applications. Mixing is permissible when design and procurement requirements allow cross-manufacturer or cross-variant usage.
