Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RF292A2JDFDK is determined by strict equivalence in the following core parameters: connector style (2.92mm), connector type (jack, female socket), impedance (50 ohms), frequency rating (40 GHz maximum), contact termination (solder), mounting type (panel mount), mounting feature (flange), and fastening type (threaded). All substitute parts maintain these electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on provided specifications:

Category 1: Bulgin Manufacturer Parts maintain identical electrical characteristics and material specifications. RF292A4JCCA differs only in mounting hole configuration (4 holes versus 2 holes) while preserving all other parameters.

Category 2: WITHWAVE CO LTD Manufacturer Parts (PM03FS056 through PM03FS063) maintain identical electrical specifications and core mechanical compatibility. These parts feature extended operating temperature ranges (-40°C ~ 135°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C) and gold-plated center contacts. Shield termination is specified as screw-type rather than solder. Body material varies between stainless steel with polyetherimide dielectric and brass with tin/nickel finish.

All substitute parts are active products with current inventory availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RF292A4JCCA (Bulgin) is selected when the application requires four mounting holes instead of two. This part maintains identical electrical specifications, operating temperature range, voltage rating, and mating cycle performance as the RF292A2JDFDK. Both parts are manufactured by Bulgin and comply with ROHS3 standards. The RF292A4JCCA provides increased mechanical stability through additional mounting points while preserving all RF characteristics.

PM03FS056, PM03FS057, PM03FS058, PM03FS059, PM03FS061, PM03FS063 (WITHWAVE CO LTD) are selected when extended operating temperature capability (-40°C ~ 135°C) is required. These parts maintain 50 ohms impedance, 40 GHz frequency rating, and solder contact termination. The primary difference is screw-type shield termination rather than solder termination. Body material is stainless steel with polyetherimide dielectric. Center contact plating is gold. These parts are active products with current inventory.

PM03FS060, PM03FS062 (WITHWAVE CO LTD) are selected when extended operating temperature capability is required and body material specification permits brass construction with tin and nickel finish. These parts maintain all core electrical specifications and are active products with current inventory.

All substitute parts are active products in current production with confirmed inventory availability.
