Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute parts PRF92-P-C-EP-120A-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS, and PRF92-P-C-EP-150-SS are classified as parametric equivalents within the PRF series. Substitution is valid based on the following criteria:

Identical Parameters:

• Connector style: 2.92mm
• Connector type: Plug, Male Pin
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Contact termination: Solder
• Shield termination: Clamp
• Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening type: Threaded
• Frequency maximum: 40 GHz
• Center contact material: Beryllium Copper
• Center contact plating: Gold
• Body material: Stainless Steel
• Dielectric material: PTFE
• Housing color: Silver
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The part number suffix variations (120A, 135, 140, 150) indicate cable length or connector variant differences that do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in applications requiring interchangeable 2.92mm RF connectors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four part numbers within this substitution group maintain active product status with Samtec Inc. and comply with ROHS3 regulations. Selection between PRF92-P-C-EP-135-SS and its equivalents (PRF92-P-C-EP-120A-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-150-SS) is determined by cable length or connector variant requirements specific to the application. From an electrical and mechanical standpoint, all parts are interchangeable for 2.92mm RF connector applications operating at frequencies up to 40 GHz with 50 Ohm impedance.

Inventory availability should be considered in component procurement decisions. PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS currently has the highest inventory level at 1074 units, followed by PRF92-P-C-EP-135-SS at 1014 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PRF92-P-C-EP-135-SS be directly replaced with PRF92-P-C-EP-120A-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS, or PRF92-P-C-EP-150-SS?

A: Yes. All four part numbers share identical electrical specifications (50 Ohm impedance, 40 GHz maximum frequency), mechanical configuration (2.92mm plug, male pin, solder termination, clamp shield), and material composition (beryllium copper center contact with gold plating, stainless steel body, PTFE dielectric). The suffix variations indicate cable length or connector variant differences that do not affect RF performance or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What determines the choice between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differentiator is cable length or specific connector variant requirements for your application. All parts maintain identical RF and mechanical characteristics. Inventory availability and delivery lead times may also influence selection.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. PRF92-P-C-EP-135-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-120A-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS, and PRF92-P-C-EP-150-SS are all ROHS3 compliant.

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

A: All parts in this group support frequencies up to 40 GHz with 50 Ohm impedance.

Q: Are these connectors suitable for solder termination applications?

A: Yes. All substitute parts feature solder contact termination with clamp shield termination, designed for free hanging in-line cable configurations.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: PRF92-P-C-EP-135-SS is supplied in standard packaging. Substitute parts PRF92-P-C-EP-120A-SS, PRF92-P-C-EP-140-SS, and PRF92-P-C-EP-150-SS are available in bulk packaging.
