RF240A2JEGADAB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RF240A2JEGADAB is a 2.4mm (APC-2.4, OS-50) coaxial connector jack with female socket configuration, designed for 50 Ohms impedance applications. This panel mount, through-hole solder connector features a flanged mounting design with two mounting holes and operates across a frequency range up to 50 GHz. The connector is constructed with beryllium copper center contacts, stainless steel body, and polyetherimide dielectric material, rated for operating temperatures from -40°C to 85°C. The part is currently active in production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications, mechanical mounting configurations, and material composition to ensure direct functional interchangeability in RF applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RF240A2JEGADAB are identified through strict parametric matching of electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant across all equivalent parts:

Electrical Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• Connector style: 2.4mm (APC-2.4, OS-50)
• Connector type: Jack, Female Socket
• Impedance: 50 Ohms
• Frequency maximum: 50 GHz
• Voltage rating: 150 V
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C

Mechanical Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• Mounting type: Panel Mount, Through Hole
• Mounting feature: Flange
• Contact termination: Solder
• Shield termination: Solder
• Center contact material: Beryllium Copper
• Body material: Stainless Steel
• Dielectric material: Polyetherimide (PEI)

Compliance Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Mating cycles: 500

The primary differentiator among substitute parts is the number of mounting holes in the flange configuration. The RF240A2JEGADAB features a 2-hole flange mount, while the RF240A4JCCADGA features a 4-hole flange mount. Both configurations maintain identical electrical performance and material specifications, with the mounting hole count being the sole mechanical variation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—RF240A2JEGADAB, RF240A2JEGADGA, and RF240A4JCCADGA—are active production components manufactured by Bulgin with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). These parts are functionally equivalent for RF applications requiring 2.4mm coaxial connectors with 50 Ohms impedance and 50 GHz frequency capability.

Selection Criteria Based on Mounting Configuration:

The RF240A2JEGADAB and RF240A2JEGADGA are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents, both featuring 2-hole flange mount configurations. Selection between these two parts is based on packaging and inventory availability rather than technical performance.

The RF240A4JCCADGA provides an alternative mounting solution with a 4-hole flange configuration. This part is selected when panel designs require four mounting points for enhanced mechanical stability or when existing PCB layouts specify 4-hole flange mount patterns. The electrical performance, impedance characteristics, frequency response, and temperature ratings remain identical to the 2-hole variants.

Component selection should be based on the specific panel mounting hole pattern required by the application design. All three parts maintain equivalent RF performance and are suitable for high-frequency applications up to 50 GHz with identical operating temperature ranges and voltage ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RF240A2JEGADAB be directly replaced with RF240A2JEGADGA?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, material composition, and mounting hole configuration (2-hole flange). The parts are interchangeable from an RF performance and installation perspective.

Q: What is the primary difference between RF240A2JEGADAB and RF240A4JCCADGA?

A: The primary difference is the flange mounting hole count. RF240A2JEGADAB features a 2-hole flange mount, while RF240A4JCCADGA features a 4-hole flange mount. All electrical parameters, impedance, frequency response, and material specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use RF240A4JCCADGA as a substitute for RF240A2JEGADAB in my existing design?

A: RF240A4JCCADGA can be used as a substitute only if your panel design accommodates the 4-hole flange mounting pattern. The electrical performance is equivalent, but the physical mounting hole configuration must match your PCB or panel layout.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RF240A2JEGADAB, RF240A2JEGADGA, and RF240A4JCCADGA are all ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).

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

A: All three parts support operation up to 50 GHz with 50 Ohms impedance, making them suitable for high-frequency RF applications.

Q: Do these connectors require any special handling or storage conditions?

A: With moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited), these connectors do not require special moisture-controlled storage or handling procedures.

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

A: All three parts operate across the temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, providing consistent performance across industrial and commercial temperature environments.
