Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PL3155ACS-201 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part PL3155AC-201 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on matching specifications in the following key areas:

  • Connector style, type, and termination method (TTM plug with crimp contact and shield termination)
  • Electrical performance (500 MHz maximum frequency, 400 V voltage rating, 500 mating cycles)
  • Physical construction (beryllium copper center contact with gold plating, brass body with nickel finish, silver housing)
  • Operating environment (-65°C to 200°C temperature range, MSL 1)
  • Cable compatibility (M17/176-00002 cable group)
  • Regulatory compliance (RoHS status, ECCN, HTSUS classification)

Both parts belong to the 3150 series and maintain identical functional characteristics for free-hanging in-line threaded applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PL3155AC-201 be used as a direct replacement for PL3155ACS-201?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector style, termination method, frequency rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and cable compatibility. The primary difference is regulatory certification status.

Q: What determines compatibility between these substitute parts?

A: Compatibility is determined by matching parameters across connector style (TTM twinaxial/triaxial), connector type (plug with male pin), termination method (crimp for both contact and shield), impedance characteristic (non-constant), mounting configuration (free hanging in-line), fastening type (threaded), frequency performance (500 MHz maximum), voltage rating (400 V), temperature range (-65°C to 200°C), and cable group designation (M17/176-00002).

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Each connector includes 2 pieces: 1 connector and 1 heat shrink.

Q: What is the significance of the ROHS3 and REACH certifications on PL3155AC-201?

A: ROHS3 Compliant indicates compliance with the latest Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. REACH Affected status indicates the part is subject to REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations. These certifications provide additional regulatory documentation for applications requiring enhanced environmental and chemical compliance tracking.

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

A: Both connectors operate across -65°C to 200°C, suitable for applications spanning extreme cold to high-temperature environments.

Q: What is the maximum frequency rating?

A: Both connectors are rated for frequencies up to 500 MHz, appropriate for RF applications in this impedance class.
