Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RF292A2JCCDP are grouped into two categories based on allowed electrical and mechanical parameters:

Category 1: Bulgin Manufacturer Equivalents The RF292A4JCCA shares identical electrical specifications (2.92mm connector style, 50 ohms impedance, 40 GHz frequency rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, 250 V voltage rating) and mechanical characteristics (panel mount, through-hole solder termination, flange mounting, threaded fastening). The primary difference is the mounting feature configuration: RF292A4JCCA uses a four-hole flange mount versus the two-hole flange mount of RF292A2JCCDP. Both parts are manufactured by Bulgin, share the same base product number (RF292), and maintain identical contact materials, body materials, and dielectric specifications.

Category 2: WITHWAVE CO LTD Parametric Equivalents The PM03FS056, PM03FS057, PM03FS058, PM03FS059, PM03FS060, PM03FS061, PM03FS062, and PM03FS063 series connectors match the core electrical parameters (2.92mm connector style, 50 ohms impedance, 40 GHz frequency rating, jack female socket configuration, panel mount, through-hole solder termination, threaded fastening). These parts differ in the following specifications: shield termination uses screw configuration instead of solder; center contact plating is gold instead of unspecified; operating temperature range extends to -40°C to 135°C (higher maximum); body materials vary between stainless steel and brass with tin/nickel finish; and dielectric material specifications differ for certain models. Mating cycles are not specified for WITHWAVE parts.

Substitution Logic Substitution is based on matching the following critical parameters: connector style (2.92mm), connector type (jack female socket), impedance (50 ohms), mounting type (panel mount), contact termination (solder), frequency capability (40 GHz), and fastening type (threaded). Variations in mounting hole configuration, shield termination method, center contact plating, body material composition, and operating temperature range are permitted within the substitute group, as these do not affect core RF performance or basic mechanical compatibility in panel mount applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain active product status and are suitable for direct component selection based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence.

Bulgin RF292A4JCCA Selection The RF292A4JCCA is a direct Bulgin equivalent with identical electrical specifications and operating characteristics to the RF292A2JCCDP. Selection of this part is appropriate when panel mounting design accommodates a four-hole flange configuration instead of the two-hole configuration. Both parts share ROHS3 compliance, identical operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), and 250 V voltage rating. Inventory availability is higher for RF292A4JCCA (1209 units) compared to RF292A2JCCDP (812 units).

WITHWAVE PM03FS Series Selection The WITHWAVE PM03FS056, PM03FS057, PM03FS058, PM03FS059, PM03FS060, PM03FS061, PM03FS062, and PM03FS063 connectors are parametric equivalents that maintain 50 ohms impedance, 40 GHz frequency capability, and 2.92mm connector geometry. These parts feature extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 135°C) compared to the RF292A2JCCDP. Selection of WITHWAVE parts is appropriate for applications requiring higher temperature operation or when screw-type shield termination is preferred over solder termination. Inventory availability for WITHWAVE parts ranges from 769 to 1144 units across the series.

Compliance and Certification All substitute parts are active in production. The RF292A2JCCDP and RF292A4JCCA maintain ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). WITHWAVE parts do not specify RoHS or MSL status in the provided parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RF292A4JCCA be used as a direct replacement for RF292A2JCCDP? A: RF292A4JCCA is electrically and mechanically equivalent to RF292A2JCCDP with one difference: the mounting flange configuration. RF292A4JCCA uses a four-hole flange mount while RF292A2JCCDP uses a two-hole flange mount. Substitution is valid only if the panel mounting design accommodates the four-hole configuration.

Q: What are the key differences between Bulgin and WITHWAVE substitute parts? A: Bulgin RF292A4JCCA maintains identical operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) and solder shield termination as the RF292A2JCCDP. WITHWAVE PM03FS series parts feature extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 135°C), screw-type shield termination, and gold-plated center contacts. Body materials vary between stainless steel and brass with tin/nickel finish across the WITHWAVE series.

Q: Are WITHWAVE parts suitable for high-temperature applications? A: Yes. WITHWAVE PM03FS series connectors are rated for -40°C to 135°C operating temperature, providing 50°C higher maximum temperature capability compared to the RF292A2JCCDP (-40°C to 85°C). Selection of WITHWAVE parts is appropriate for applications requiring extended temperature operation.

Q: What is the difference between solder and screw shield termination? A: RF292A2JCCDP and RF292A4JCCA use solder shield termination, where the shield is soldered to the connector body. WITHWAVE PM03FS series uses screw shield termination, where the shield is secured via threaded fastening. Both termination methods provide electrical shielding; selection depends on assembly process requirements and mechanical design constraints.

Q: Do all substitute parts support 40 GHz frequency operation? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (RF292A4JCCA and PM03FS series) are rated for 40 GHz maximum frequency, matching the RF292A2JCCDP specification.

Q: What is the impedance specification for all parts? A: All parts in this equivalence group maintain 50 ohms impedance, which is the standard for RF coaxial connectors in this connector class.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when selecting substitute parts? A: Inventory availability varies across the substitute group. RF292A2JCCDP has 812 units in stock, RF292A4JCCA has 1209 units, and WITHWAVE PM03FS series parts range from 769 to 1144 units. Inventory status should be confirmed at time of procurement.

Q: Can WITHWAVE parts be used in applications originally designed for Bulgin RF292A2JCCDP? A: WITHWAVE parts are parametric equivalents suitable for applications requiring 2.92mm, 50 ohms, 40 GHz RF connectors with panel mount flange configuration. Substitution is valid for RF performance and mechanical mounting. Design review is recommended to confirm compatibility with screw shield termination and extended operating temperature range.
