PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS N Type Coaxial Connector Plug Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS is an N Type coaxial connector plug manufactured by Samtec Inc., designed for RF applications requiring 50 Ohm impedance matching. This male pin connector features solder termination and free-hanging (in-line) mounting configuration, suitable for cable assembly applications up to 18 GHz. The connector is constructed with stainless steel body, beryllium copper center contact with gold plating, and polyetherimide dielectric material. Product status is Active with ROHS3 compliance. Equivalent substitute parts are necessary when primary part availability is limited, inventory constraints exist, or when alternative cable lengths are required within the same connector series.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

All substitute parts for PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS are classified as parametric equivalents within the PRF06 series. Substitution is based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters across all critical specifications. The following parameters determine substitutability:

Critical Substitution Parameters:

• Connector Style: N Type (identical across all parts)
• Connector Type: Plug, Male Pin (identical across all parts)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (identical across all parts)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line) (identical across all parts)
• Contact Termination: Solder (identical across all parts)
• Shield Termination: Clamp (identical across all parts)
• Fastening Type: Threaded (identical across all parts)
• Frequency - Max: 18 GHz (identical across all parts)
• Center Contact Material: Beryllium Copper (identical across all parts)
• Center Contact Plating: Gold (identical across all parts)
• Body Material: Stainless Steel (identical across all parts)
• Dielectric Material: Polyetherimide (PEI) (identical across all parts)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical across all parts)

The numeric suffix in each part number (190, 142, 290, 305, 335) indicates cable length specification. All parts maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical interface characteristics, enabling direct substitution based on cable length requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PRF06-P-C-EP-142-SS be used as a direct replacement for PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents within the PRF06 series. The difference is cable length specification only. Electrical performance, mechanical interface, impedance, frequency response, and all material specifications are identical. Selection depends on cable length requirements for your application.

Q: What determines the substitutability of these N Type connector plugs?

A: Substitutability is determined by matching all critical parameters: connector style (N Type), connector type (Plug, Male Pin), impedance (50 Ohms), mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line), contact termination (Solder), shield termination (Clamp), fastening type (Threaded), maximum frequency (18 GHz), center contact material (Beryllium Copper), center contact plating (Gold), body material (Stainless Steel), and dielectric material (Polyetherimide). All substitute parts match these specifications exactly.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS and the substitute parts?

A: No. All parts operate identically at 50 Ohm impedance with 18 GHz maximum frequency capability. Electrical performance is determined by connector geometry, materials, and design, which are identical across all substitute parts.

Q: What is the significance of the numeric suffix in the part number?

A: The numeric suffix (190, 142, 290, 305, 335) indicates cable length specification. This is the only differentiating factor among these parametric equivalents. All other specifications remain constant.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All parts listed—PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS, PRF06-P-C-EP-142-SS, PRF06-P-C-EP-290-SS, PRF06-P-C-EP-305-SS, and PRF06-P-C-EP-335-SS—are ROHS3 compliant with identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4010) classifications.

Q: Can I substitute based on inventory availability?

A: Yes. Since all parts are parametric equivalents, selection can be based on inventory availability and cable length requirements. Current stock levels are: PRF06-P-C-EP-290-SS (1047 Pcs), PRF06-P-C-EP-190-SS (1038 Pcs), PRF06-P-C-EP-142-SS (912 Pcs), PRF06-P-C-EP-335-SS (793 Pcs), and PRF06-P-C-EP-305-SS (732 Pcs).

Q: Do all substitute parts use the same materials?

A: Yes. All parts feature stainless steel body, beryllium copper center contact with gold plating, and polyetherimide dielectric material. Material specifications are identical across all substitute parts.

Q: What is the maximum operating frequency for these connectors?

A: All parts in this group support maximum frequency of 18 GHz, making them suitable for broadband RF applications within this frequency range.
