Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

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

• Connector Type: RJ45 (mandatory match)
• Number of Ports: 1 (mandatory match)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (mandatory match)
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right) (mandatory match)
• Termination: Solder (mandatory match)
• Shielding: Shielded, EMI Finger (mandatory match)
• Features: Board Lock (mandatory match)
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C ~ 70°C (mandatory match)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (mandatory match)

The identified substitute parts meet all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in core count (12 cores vs. 8 cores), contact finish thickness, and specific application designation (Base-TX vs. Base-T) represent acceptable engineering differences within the RJ45 modular connector category for Ethernet applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. Selection between ARJ11E-MCSC-A-B-GL2, A60-113-331P432, and ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 is determined by application-specific requirements and inventory availability.

ARJ11E-MCSC-A-B-GL2 (Primary Part): 12-core configuration with 6.00µin contact finish thickness. Suitable for applications requiring maximum core density. Current inventory: 1164 units.

ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 (Abracon Substitute): 8-core configuration with matching height and contact finish thickness to the primary part. Maintains identical Base-TX application designation and Abracon manufacturing. Current inventory: 729 units.

A60-113-331P432 (Cross-Manufacturer Substitute): 8-core configuration manufactured by Mercury United Electronics with 15.0µin contact finish thickness. Designated for Base-T applications. Height differential of 0.010" (0.25mm) is within mechanical tolerance for standard PCB mounting. Current inventory: 671 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can A60-113-331P432 be used as a direct replacement for ARJ11E-MCSC-A-B-GL2?

A: Yes. Both parts meet all mandatory substitution criteria: RJ45 connector type, 1-port configuration, through-hole mounting, 90° right-angle orientation, solder termination, shielded construction with EMI finger, board lock feature, and identical operating temperature range. The 0.010" height difference and 8-core vs. 12-core configuration represent acceptable engineering variations for standard Ethernet applications.

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

A: Both designations indicate 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet capability with AutoMDIX functionality. The designation difference reflects manufacturer classification; both support identical network speed standards and are functionally compatible in 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet systems.

Q: Does the core count difference (12 vs. 8) affect compatibility?

A: No. The 12-core configuration in ARJ11E-MCSC-A-B-GL2 and 8-core configurations in substitute parts both support standard RJ45 Ethernet pinout requirements. Core count variation is an internal design parameter that does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in standard applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: ARJ11E-MCSC-A-B-GL2 packaging is not specified in the provided data. A60-113-331P432 and ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 are supplied in tray packaging. Packaging differences do not affect component functionality or PCB integration.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection is based on availability, cost, and supply chain considerations. All three parts are active products with full compliance certifications. ARJ11E-MBSA-A-B-EM2 offers the advantage of identical Abracon manufacturing and matching specifications to the primary part. A60-113-331P432 provides cross-manufacturer sourcing flexibility.
