Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RFPC-SMA28-F and 60312042111532 are active products suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring SMA female jack connectors with 50-ohm impedance and through-hole solder termination. The Würth Elektronik substitute part 60312042111532 provides extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 165°C versus -55°C to 125°C) and documented mating cycle rating of 500 cycles. The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status, providing regulatory documentation for applications requiring environmental compliance verification. Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, procurement lead times, and specific application temperature requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Würth Elektronik 60312042111532 be used as a direct replacement for the GradConn RFPC-SMA28-F?

A: Yes. Both connectors meet identical specifications for SMA female jack configuration, 50-ohm impedance, panel mount through-hole mounting, solder termination, and 6 GHz frequency rating. Physical and electrical interchangeability is confirmed across all critical parameters.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are center contact material (Brass versus Beryllium Copper), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -65°C to 165°C), documented mating cycles (not specified versus 500), and insertion loss specification (not specified versus 0.14 dB). The Würth Elektronik part includes ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status documentation.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: The Würth Elektronik 60312042111532 supports operating temperatures up to 165°C, providing a wider thermal operating window compared to the RFPC-SMA28-F maximum of 125°C.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both parts are supplied in tray packaging suitable for automated assembly and component handling.

Q: What is the significance of the mating cycle rating on the Würth Elektronik part?

A: The 500 mating cycle rating on the 60312042111532 specifies the connector's mechanical durability for repeated connection and disconnection cycles. This specification is not provided for the RFPC-SMA28-F.

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

A: Both connectors are classified as Not Applicable for Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL), indicating standard storage and handling procedures are appropriate.
