Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RF55-31B-T-02-50-X-SH qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the RF55-27B-T-02-50-A-SH based on the following critical substitution parameters:

• Connector Style: Both are SMB, Fakra connectors
• Connector Type: Both are Plug, Male Pin configurations
• Impedance: Both maintain 50 ohms
• Mounting Type: Both are Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Both use Crimp termination
• Shield Termination: Both use Crimp termination
• Frequency - Max: Both rated to 4 GHz
• Cable Group: Both support RG-174 and RG-316
• Operating Temperature: Both operate -40°C ~ 85°C
• Body Material and Finish: Both use Brass with Nickel finish
• Center Contact Material and Plating: Both use Brass with Gold plating
• Dielectric Material: Both use PTFE
• Fastening Type: Both use Locking Ramp
• Compliance: Both are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected

The substitution is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The difference in base product number (RF55-27 versus RF55-31) reflects manufacturing or design revision variations that do not affect functional interchangeability in the specified application parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RF55-27B-T-02-50-A-SH and RF55-31B-T-02-50-X-SH are active production parts manufactured by Adam Tech with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, with the RF55-31B-T-02-50-X-SH currently showing higher stock levels (1315 units versus 1002 units). Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring SMB Fakra male pin connectors with 50 ohm impedance and crimp termination for RG-174 or RG-316 cable groups.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are RF55-27B-T-02-50-A-SH and RF55-31B-T-02-50-X-SH mechanically compatible?

A: Yes. Both connectors use identical SMB Fakra plug configurations with male pin termination, locking ramp fastening, and free hanging (in-line) mounting. They are mechanically interchangeable.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in RF applications?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain 50 ohm impedance, support frequencies to 4 GHz, and use identical dielectric materials (PTFE), center contact materials (Brass with Gold plating), and body materials (Brass with Nickel finish). They are electrically equivalent for the specified frequency range.

Q: What cable types are compatible with both connectors?

A: Both connectors support RG-174 and RG-316 cable groups with crimp termination for both contact and shield.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

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

A: Both connectors operate across -40°C to 85°C.

Q: Why do these parts have different base product numbers?

A: The base product number difference (RF55-27 versus RF55-31) reflects manufacturing or design revision variations. The complete part numbers indicate these are equivalent designs that maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters for functional interchangeability.
