CONSMA001-SMD SMA Connector Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CONSMA001-SMD is an SMA connector receptacle manufactured by TE Connectivity Linx, designed for RF coaxial applications requiring 50-ohm impedance. This surface-mount female socket connector operates across frequencies up to 18 GHz and is rated for operating temperatures from -65°C to 165°C. The part is Active in product status with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), making it suitable for industrial and commercial RF applications. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CONSMA001-SMD are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Style: SMA
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Socket
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Contact Termination: Solder
• Shield Termination: Solder
• Frequency - Max: 18 GHz
• Operating Temperature Range: -65°C to 165°C
• Mating Cycles: 500
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part CONSMA001-SMD-G maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications identical to the main part. The primary difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Bag) and housing/body finish color (Gold versus Nickel), which do not affect functional compatibility or performance in RF applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CONSMA001-SMD and CONSMA001-SMD-G are Active products with identical RoHS compliance and REACH status. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability rather than electrical performance, as all RF and mechanical specifications are equivalent.

The CONSMA001-SMD-G offers higher inventory availability (4150 pcs) compared to CONSMA001-SMD (1064 pcs) and is supplied in Bulk packaging. The CONSMA001-SMD is supplied in Bag packaging. The difference in housing finish (Gold versus Nickel) and body finish does not impact electrical performance or environmental compliance for RF applications operating within the specified frequency and temperature ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are CONSMA001-SMD and CONSMA001-SMD-G electrically interchangeable?
