EB-CP-RJ45-F1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EB-CP-RJ45-F1 is a modular jack connector manufactured by Red Lion Controls, designed for 8-position 8-contact (8p8c) RJ45 Ethernet applications. This unshielded, straight-orientation connector features panel mount bulkhead installation with IDC termination, circular threaded coupling, cover, and strain relief. The connector meets IP67 ingress protection standards for dust-tight and waterproof operation.

The EB-CP-RJ45-F1 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing system maintenance and production requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EB-CP-RJ45-F1 is based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

Electrical & Functional Parameters:

  • Connector type: Jack
  • Contact configuration: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
  • Port and row count: 1 port, 1 row
  • Termination method: IDC
  • Shielding: Unshielded

Mechanical & Environmental Parameters:

  • Mounting type: Panel Mount, Bulkhead
  • Orientation: Straight
  • Ingress protection: IP67 (Dust Tight, Waterproof)
  • Tab direction: User Selectable
  • Features: Circular Threaded Coupling, Strain Relief

Regulatory & Compliance Parameters:

  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
  • REACH Status: REACH Unaffected
  • ECCN: EAR99

The substitute part EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 maintains all critical parameters required for functional and mechanical compatibility with the obsolete EB-CP-RJ45-F1.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete EB-CP-RJ45-F1. Both connectors are manufactured by Red Lion Controls and maintain functional and mechanical equivalence across all critical parameters.

Product Status Consideration: The EB-CP-RJ45-F1 is obsolete, while the EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is active. The active status of the substitute part ensures ongoing availability and supply chain support.

Compliance & Certification: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 provides additional ROHS3 compliance certification and specified operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), supporting broader regulatory requirements.

Inventory & Availability: The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is available in bulk packaging with 1051 pieces in stock, compared to 983 pieces of the obsolete EB-CP-RJ45-F1.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the core compatibility criteria between EB-CP-RJ45-F1 and EB-RJF-BLKHD-1?

A: Both connectors share identical specifications for connector type (Jack), contact configuration (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet), mounting method (Panel Mount Bulkhead), orientation (Straight), termination (IDC), shielding (Unshielded), ingress protection (IP67), and tab direction (User Selectable). These parameters ensure direct functional and mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 recommended as a substitute?

A: The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent. It maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the obsolete EB-CP-RJ45-F1 while offering active product status, improved compliance certifications (ROHS3), and specified operating temperature range.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The EB-CP-RJ45-F1 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: What is the difference in features between the two connectors?

A: The EB-CP-RJ45-F1 includes a cover feature, while the EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 does not list this feature. Both include circular threaded coupling and strain relief. Evaluate cover requirements for your specific application.

Q: Are both connectors rated for the same environmental conditions?

A: Both connectors meet IP67 ingress protection (dust tight, waterproof) and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity. The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 specifies operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 85°C. Confirm temperature requirements for your application environment.

Q: What is the Cat6 rating mentioned for the EB-RJF-BLKHD-1?

A: The EB-RJF-BLKHD-1 is rated for Cat6 performance. This specification is not provided for the EB-CP-RJ45-F1. Cat6 rating indicates compliance with Category 6 Ethernet standards for data transmission performance.
