Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ATS-2M2F-20DB5W are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Attenuation Value: 20 dB (exact match required)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 5W (minimum requirement)
• Package Type: N-Type In-Line Module (exact match required)
• Frequency Range: Minimum coverage of 0 Hz ~ 6 GHz

The substitute part identified meets all primary matching criteria and extends the frequency range capability, providing enhanced performance for applications requiring operation beyond 6 GHz.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Rosenberger 53AS105-K20N3 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete Amphenol RF ATS-2M2F-20DB5W. Both components share identical attenuation, impedance, power rating, and package configuration specifications.

Selection Basis:

The 53AS105-K20N3 is classified as an active product with current manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence status of the original component. The substitute part maintains full compatibility with the primary electrical and mechanical parameters while offering extended frequency range coverage to 10 GHz, providing additional operational margin for existing and future applications.

Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0090) classifications, ensuring equivalent regulatory treatment. The Rosenberger component includes RoHS compliance certification, meeting modern environmental and manufacturing standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Rosenberger 53AS105-K20N3 directly replace the Amphenol RF ATS-2M2F-20DB5W in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components provide identical attenuation (20 dB), impedance (50 Ohms), power handling (5W), and N-Type in-line module packaging. The Rosenberger part operates across the full frequency range of the original component and extends to 10 GHz.

Q: What is the significance of the extended frequency range in the substitute part?

A: The Rosenberger 53AS105-K20N3 operates from 0 Hz to 10 GHz, compared to the original 0 Hz to 6 GHz specification. This extended range provides operational capability for applications requiring attenuation above 6 GHz without component substitution.

Q: Are there any mechanical or electrical differences between these components?

A: Both components utilize identical N-Type in-line module packaging and maintain 50 Ohm impedance with 5W power rating. No mechanical or electrical incompatibilities exist for direct substitution.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance status of the substitute part affect compatibility?

A: RoHS compliance of the Rosenberger component indicates adherence to environmental and manufacturing standards. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility with the original component specification.

Q: Are both parts subject to the same export classifications?

A: Yes. Both the ATS-2M2F-20DB5W and 53AS105-K20N3 carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0090) classifications, ensuring equivalent regulatory treatment for export and procurement purposes.
