The substitute part 102-799-16 (Amphenol RF) meets all critical and important parameter requirements, establishing it as a direct functional equivalent for the RF123-7001-B in coaxial connector applications requiring 1.0/2.3 male pin solder termination at 50-ohm impedance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RF123-7001-B and 102-799-16 are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications for 1.0/2.3 male pin 50-ohm coaxial connector applications. Selection between these parts is based on the following engineering considerations:

RF123-7001-B (RF Industries):

• Operating temperature range: -65°C ~ 155°C
• Current inventory: 1115 units
• Suitable for applications requiring extended low-temperature operation

102-799-16 (Amphenol RF):

• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 155°C
• Current inventory: 1138 units
• Mating cycles specification: 500
• Cable group compatibility: RG-174, 188, 188A, 316, LMR-100, M17/119-RG174
• Suitable for standard temperature range applications with documented mating cycle performance

Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance, EAR99 export classification, and identical electrical performance at 10 GHz maximum frequency. The choice between these substitutes depends on specific application temperature requirements and cable compatibility needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 102-799-16 directly replace the RF123-7001-B in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications (50 ohms, 10 GHz maximum frequency), mechanical configuration (1.0/2.3 male pin, solder/crimp termination), and compliance certifications (ROHS3). The primary consideration is the operating temperature range: the RF123-7001-B operates from -65°C to 155°C, while the 102-799-16 operates from -40°C to 155°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C must use the RF123-7001-B.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility for 1.0/2.3 coaxial connectors is determined by: connector style (1.0/2.3), connector type (male pin), impedance (50 ohms), contact termination (solder), shield termination (crimp), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and maximum frequency (10 GHz). All these parameters must match exactly between the main part and substitute.

Q: Are there cable compatibility differences between these parts?

A: The 102-799-16 specifies compatibility with cable groups RG-174, 188, 188A, 316, LMR-100, and M17/119-RG174. The RF123-7001-B does not specify cable group compatibility in the provided data. For applications using these specific cable types, the 102-799-16 provides documented compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the mating cycles specification?

A: The 102-799-16 specifies 500 mating cycles, indicating the connector is rated for 500 connection and disconnection cycles. The RF123-7001-B does not provide a mating cycles specification. For applications involving frequent connector mating, the 102-799-16 provides documented cycle performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the RF123-7001-B and 102-799-16 are ROHS3 compliant, classified under ECCN EAR99, and share the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4010). Both have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). The 102-799-16 additionally carries REACH Affected status.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The RF123-7001-B packaging is not specified in the provided data. The 102-799-16 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications before ordering.
