RFSMAA2PCEE SMA Coaxial Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RFSMAA2PCEE is an SMA connector plug manufactured by Bulgin, designed for 50 Ohm RF applications requiring panel mount installation with flange mounting and two-hole fastening. This male pin connector operates across a frequency range up to 26.5 GHz and is rated for operating temperatures between -65°C and 165°C. The connector utilizes compression contact termination with screw shield termination, making it suitable for high-frequency coaxial cable applications in telecommunications, aerospace, and industrial RF systems. The product is currently active and ROHS3 compliant. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified for applications where alternative mounting configurations or inventory availability necessitate component substitution while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RFSMAA2PCEE are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. All substitute connectors maintain identical specifications across the following critical parameters: SMA connector style, male pin configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, panel mount installation, flange mounting feature, compression contact termination, screw shield termination, maximum frequency of 26.5 GHz, operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C, voltage rating of 335 V, mating cycle rating of 500, beryllium copper center contact material, stainless steel body material, polyetherimide dielectric material, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL rating of 1.

The primary distinction between substitute parts lies in the fastening hole configuration. The RFSMAA2PCEE features two-hole flange mounting, while the RFSMAA4PCCA provides four-hole flange mounting. The RFSMAA2PEGA maintains the two-hole configuration identical to the main part. All three parts share the same base product number (RFSMA) and are manufactured by Bulgin as active products with equivalent electrical performance and environmental ratings.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—RFSMAA2PCEE, RFSMAA2PEGA, and RFSMAA4PCCA—are active products manufactured by Bulgin with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by panel mounting hole configuration requirements.

RFSMAA2PCEE and RFSMAA2PEGA are direct equivalents with two-hole flange mounting. Both parts are suitable for applications where the panel design accommodates two-hole fastening. The RFSMAA2PCEE currently maintains higher inventory availability at 1065 pieces, while RFSMAA2PEGA provides 741 pieces in stock.

RFSMAA4PCCA is functionally equivalent but features four-hole flange mounting. This configuration is appropriate for applications requiring increased mechanical stability through four-point fastening or where panel designs specify four-hole mounting patterns. The RFSMAA4PCCA maintains inventory of 1057 pieces.

All parts maintain identical electrical performance, environmental ratings, and compliance certifications. Selection is based solely on mechanical mounting requirements and panel hole configuration compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RFSMAA2PCEE be substituted with RFSMAA2PEGA?

A: Yes. Both parts are two-hole flange mount SMA male plug connectors with identical electrical specifications, impedance, frequency rating, operating temperature range, and material composition. They are direct parametric equivalents.

Q: What is the primary difference between RFSMAA2PCEE and RFSMAA4PCCA?

A: The primary difference is the flange mounting hole configuration. RFSMAA2PCEE provides two-hole fastening, while RFSMAA4PCCA provides four-hole fastening. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Can RFSMAA4PCCA be used in place of RFSMAA2PCEE?

A: RFSMAA4PCCA is electrically and mechanically equivalent but requires a panel design with four mounting holes instead of two. Substitution is possible only if the panel layout accommodates four-hole fastening.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RFSMAA2PCEE, RFSMAA2PEGA, and RFSMAA4PCCA are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

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

A: All three parts are rated for maximum frequency of 26.5 GHz, making them suitable for high-frequency RF applications.

Q: Do these connectors support the same mating cycle rating?

A: Yes. All three parts are rated for 500 mating cycles, providing equivalent mechanical durability.

Q: What materials are used in the center contact and body?

A: All three parts utilize beryllium copper for the center contact and stainless steel for the body, with polyetherimide (PEI) as the dielectric material.

Q: What is the voltage rating for these SMA connectors?

A: All three parts are rated for 335 V, providing equivalent electrical safety margins.
