Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Substitution Validity: FA1-NASP-C01-0 is a valid parametric equivalent to FA2-NASP-C01-0 for single connector applications. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol RF, maintain Active product status, and comply with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. Electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and material specifications are identical across both parts.

Selection Criteria:

1. Quantity Requirements: Select FA2-NASP-C01-0 when procurement requires 2 connectors per package unit. Select FA1-NASP-C01-0 when single connector units are required or when bulk packaging is preferred.

2. Compliance & Certification: Both parts satisfy identical regulatory requirements (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Affected, EAR99 ECCN classification, 8536.69.4010 HTSUS code). No compliance differentiation exists between the two parts.

3. Supply Chain Continuity: FA2-NASP-C01-0 maintains higher current inventory (1113 units) compared to FA1-NASP-C01-0 (806 units). For time-sensitive applications, inventory availability should be verified at time of procurement.

4. Application Compatibility: Both parts support identical cable groups (RG-174, 188, 188A, 316, LMR-100, M17/119-RG174) and operate within the same frequency range (DC to 4 GHz) and temperature envelope (-40°C to 100°C).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FA1-NASP-C01-0 be used as a direct replacement for FA2-NASP-C01-0 in production assemblies?

A: Yes, FA1-NASP-C01-0 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to FA2-NASP-C01-0. The primary difference is packaging configuration: FA1-NASP-C01-0 contains 1 connector per package unit, while FA2-NASP-C01-0 contains 2 connectors per package unit. For applications requiring a single connector, FA1-NASP-C01-0 is a valid substitute. Procurement quantity calculations must account for the different package contents.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between FA2-NASP-C01-0 and FA1-NASP-C01-0?

A: No. Both parts exhibit identical electrical specifications: 50 Ohm impedance, 4 GHz maximum frequency, and 0.3 dB insertion loss. Signal integrity and RF performance are equivalent across both part numbers.

Q: What cable types are compatible with both FA2-NASP-C01-0 and FA1-NASP-C01-0?

A: Both connectors support the following cable groups: RG-174, RG-188, RG-188A, RG-316, LMR-100, and M17/119-RG174. Cable selection must be based on application impedance requirements (50 Ohms) and frequency bandwidth (DC to 4 GHz).

Q: Do both parts require the same termination process?

A: Yes. Both FA2-NASP-C01-0 and FA1-NASP-C01-0 utilize crimp termination for both center contact and shield. Tooling, crimping parameters, and assembly procedures are identical for both parts.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both connectors?

A: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range: -40°C to 100°C. No thermal performance differentiation exists between FA2-NASP-C01-0 and FA1-NASP-C01-0.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both FA2-NASP-C01-0 and FA1-NASP-C01-0 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected. Material composition and plating specifications meet all applicable environmental regulations.

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

A: Both parts are rated for 100 mating cycles. This specification defines the mechanical durability and expected service life for connector engagement and disengagement operations.

Q: How do the package quantities affect procurement planning?

A: FA2-NASP-C01-0 provides 2 connectors per package unit, while FA1-NASP-C01-0 provides 1 connector per package unit. When calculating procurement quantities, multiply the required number of connectors by the appropriate conversion factor. For example, 100 connectors require 50 units of FA2-NASP-C01-0 or 100 units of FA1-NASP-C01-0.
