Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CJSUD688TGRDY is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

Functional Interface Requirements:

• Exterior connector type: Modular Jack 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Interior termination type: IDC, Pressdown, Punchdown Block
• Category rating: Cat6
• Shielded configuration

Physical and Environmental Requirements:

• Exterior housing color: Red
• Operating temperature range: -10°C ~ 65°C
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The substitute part CJS688TGRDY maintains all critical functional and environmental parameters while transitioning from an Obsolete product status to an Active status. Both components are manufactured by Panduit Corp and support identical connector interfaces and performance ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CJS688TGRDY serves as the direct active equivalent for the obsolete CJSUD688TGRDY. Selection of the substitute part is supported by the following factors:

Product Status Transition: The CJSUD688TGRDY is classified as Obsolete, while CJS688TGRDY maintains Active status, ensuring long-term availability and continued manufacturing support.

Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain ROHS3 Compliant certification and REACH Unaffected status, satisfying current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component deployment.

Functional Equivalence: Both parts provide identical connector interfaces (Modular Jack 8p8c RJ45 Ethernet to IDC Punchdown Block), Cat6 performance ratings, and shielded configurations. The operating temperature range and physical housing specifications remain consistent.

Contact Material Variation: The substitute part utilizes Copper contact material in place of Phosphor Bronze. This represents a standard material substitution within Keystone Connector design practices and maintains electrical performance within Cat6 specifications.
