Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FA1-NZSP-PCB-2 and RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent for 50-ohm RF coaxial connector applications operating up to 4 GHz.

The FA1-NZSP-PCB-2 (Amphenol RF) carries REACH affected status, while the RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH (Adam Tech) is REACH unaffected. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance characteristics and physical form factors suitable for through-hole PCB mounting with solder termination.

Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, packaging requirements, and regulatory compliance needs specific to the end application. The Adam Tech RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH is supplied in tray packaging with 1470 units in stock, while the Amphenol RF FA1-NZSP-PCB-2 has 704 units available.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH be used as a direct replacement for FA1-NZSP-PCB-2?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications (50-ohm impedance, 4 GHz maximum frequency), mechanical configuration (SMB Fakra plug, male pin, through-hole solder mount), and material composition (brass body and contacts with gold plating, PTFE dielectric). They are functionally interchangeable in PCB-mounted RF applications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Amphenol RF versus Adam Tech), packaging format (standard versus tray), inventory levels (704 versus 1470 units), and regulatory status (REACH affected versus REACH unaffected). All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are there any temperature or frequency limitations when substituting?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) and frequency range (up to 4 GHz). There are no performance limitations when substituting between these parts.

Q: What is the significance of the Code Z feature?

A: Code Z is a feature designation present on both parts. This feature is identical across both connectors and does not affect substitution compatibility.

Q: Does the packaging difference affect connector performance?

A: No. The tray packaging of the Adam Tech part is a logistics consideration only and does not impact electrical or mechanical performance. The connector itself is identical regardless of packaging format.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The FA1-NZSP-PCB-2 is REACH affected, while the RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH is REACH unaffected. Selection should account for specific regulatory requirements of the end application and destination market.

Q: What is the mating cycle rating for these connectors?

A: The FA1-NZSP-PCB-2 is rated for 100 mating cycles. The mating cycle specification for the RF55-28Z-T-00-50-G-SH is not provided in the available data.
