CONN005-R58 N Type Coaxial Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CONN005-R58 is an N Type Connector Receptacle with female socket configuration, rated for 50 Ohms impedance and designed for panel mount applications with solder termination. Manufactured by TE Connectivity Linx, this component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts to maintain design continuity and ensure supply chain availability for new production and field replacements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CONN005-R58 is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Connector Style: N Type (mechanical and electrical interface standard)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Socket (mating interface configuration)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (RF transmission characteristic)
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount with Bulkhead - Front Side Nut (physical installation method)
• Contact Termination: Solder or Crimp/Solder (cable attachment method)
• Dielectric Material: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) (electrical performance and temperature stability)
• Operating Temperature Range: -65°C ~ 165°C (environmental operating limits)

The substitute part Amphenol RF 172313 meets these core substitution criteria. While frequency maximum and insertion loss specifications differ, both components maintain N Type receptacle configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, panel mount bulkhead design, PTFE dielectric, and identical operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol RF 172313 is an active product suitable for substitution of the obsolete CONN005-R58. Both components share identical N Type receptacle configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, panel mount bulkhead design, PTFE dielectric material, and operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C.

The 172313 offers dual termination capability (Crimp or Solder), providing installation flexibility beyond the solder-only termination of the original part. The substitute part demonstrates superior insertion loss performance at 0.15 dB compared to 0.3 dB for the CONN005-R58.

Frequency maximum specification differs between parts: the original CONN005-R58 supports 11 GHz operation, while the 172313 is rated to 6 GHz. Application frequency requirements must be evaluated against this specification difference.

Both components carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) classifications and maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. The 172313 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected, providing compliance documentation for regulated applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol RF 172313 directly replace the TE Connectivity Linx CONN005-R58?

A: Yes, for applications operating at frequencies up to 6 GHz. Both connectors maintain N Type receptacle configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, panel mount bulkhead design, and identical operating temperature range. If your application requires operation above 6 GHz, the frequency specification difference must be evaluated against system requirements.

Q: What is the difference between "Receptacle" and "Jack" terminology for these connectors?

A: Both terms describe the female socket configuration in N Type connector nomenclature. The CONN005-R58 uses "Receptacle" designation while the 172313 uses "Jack" designation. These are functionally equivalent mating interfaces for N Type connectors.

Q: Does the 172313 support solder termination like the original part?

A: Yes. The 172313 offers dual termination capability supporting both Crimp and Solder methods, providing installation flexibility. Solder termination is fully supported for applications requiring this attachment method.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The CONN005-R58 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 172313 is supplied in Bag packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the 172313?

A: The 172313 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected. Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) classifications. Verify compliance requirements for your specific application and regulatory jurisdiction.

Q: How do insertion loss specifications compare?

A: The 172313 demonstrates lower insertion loss at 0.15 dB compared to 0.3 dB for the CONN005-R58. This represents improved RF performance in the substitute part.
