Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute part identification for the R161331200 is based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Connector style: N Type
• Connector type: Jack, Female Socket
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Frequency maximum: 11 GHz
• Insertion loss: 0.15 dB
• Mating cycles: 500

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Mounting type: Panel Mount
• Mounting feature: Bulkhead - Front Side Nut
• Fastening type: Threaded
• Number of ports: 1
• Center contact material: Beryllium Copper
• Center contact plating: Gold
• Dielectric material: PTFE
• Body material: Brass

Termination Compatibility:

• Shield termination: Crimp (primary requirement)
• Contact termination: Crimp (primary) or Crimp/Solder (acceptable alternative)

The substitute part Cinch Connectivity Solutions 138-4318-407 meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The contact termination option of Crimp or Solder provides additional flexibility while maintaining crimp capability for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the primary part R161331200 and substitute part 138-4318-407 are active products with equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Selection between these parts is determined by the following factors:

Radiall USA R161331200:

• ROHS3 Compliant certification
• IP67 ingress protection rating specified
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Voltage rating: 1400 V
• Suitable for applications requiring enhanced environmental protection and higher voltage tolerance

Cinch Connectivity Solutions 138-4318-407:

• RoHS Compliant certification
• Contact termination flexibility: Crimp or Solder
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 165°C
• Voltage rating: 335 V
• Includes accessory kit: 1 Connector, 1 Contact, 1 Gasket, 1 Lockwasher, 1 Nut, 1 Sleeve
• Suitable for applications requiring extended low-temperature operation and termination method flexibility

Both parts satisfy the core RF coaxial connector requirements for 50 Ohm N Type jack applications with panel mount bulkhead configuration. Selection should be based on specific application requirements regarding environmental protection, voltage tolerance, operating temperature range, and termination methodology.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Cinch 138-4318-407 directly replace the Radiall R161331200 in existing designs?

A: Yes, the Cinch 138-4318-407 provides direct mechanical and electrical substitution. Both connectors share identical N Type jack configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, 11 GHz frequency capability, panel mount bulkhead mounting, and 0.15 dB insertion loss. The contact termination option of Crimp or Solder in the Cinch part accommodates crimp-based assembly processes used with the Radiall part.

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

A: Primary differences include: (1) Operating temperature range: Radiall -55°C to 155°C versus Cinch -65°C to 165°C; (2) Voltage rating: Radiall 1400 V versus Cinch 335 V; (3) Ingress protection: Radiall specifies IP67 while Cinch does not specify a rating; (4) Body finish: Radiall White Bronze versus Cinch Tri-Alloy; (5) Included accessories: Cinch includes gasket, lockwasher, nut, and sleeve; (6) RoHS certification level: Radiall ROHS3 versus Cinch RoHS.

Q: Are the cable groups compatible between these connectors?

A: The Radiall R161331200 supports RG-214 and RG-225 cable groups. The Cinch 138-4318-407 supports RG-9 and RG-214 cable groups. RG-214 is common to both parts. Applications using RG-225 cable require the Radiall part, while applications using RG-9 cable require the Cinch part.

Q: What is the significance of the contact termination difference?

A: The Radiall part specifies Crimp termination only. The Cinch part offers Crimp or Solder termination options. For applications requiring crimp assembly, both parts are equivalent. For applications requiring solder termination, only the Cinch part is suitable.

Q: How do the ingress protection ratings affect application selection?

A: The Radiall R161331200 specifies IP67 protection (dust tight and waterproof). The Cinch 138-4318-407 does not specify an ingress protection rating. Applications requiring documented IP67 environmental protection must use the Radiall part.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-frequency RF applications?

A: Yes, both parts support frequencies up to 11 GHz with identical 0.15 dB insertion loss, making them suitable for equivalent RF performance in coaxial applications within this frequency range.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bulk packaging. The Cinch part includes an accessory kit containing gasket, lockwasher, nut, and sleeve components, while the Radiall part does not specify included accessories. Procurement should account for these packaging differences when planning assembly operations.
