RFSMAA2PEGC SMA Coaxial Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RFSMAA2PEGC is an SMA connector plug manufactured by Bulgin, designed for 50 Ohm RF applications requiring panel mount installation. This male pin connector features compression contact termination and screw shield termination, operating across a frequency range up to 26.5 GHz. The connector is constructed with beryllium copper center contacts and stainless steel body, rated for operating temperatures between -65°C and 165°C. The RFSMAA2PEGC maintains active product status and is ROHS3 compliant. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part number is unavailable or when specific mounting configurations are required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RFSMAA2PEGC are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. All substitute parts maintain identical specifications across the following critical parameters: SMA connector style, male pin plug configuration, 50 Ohm impedance, compression contact termination, screw shield termination, panel mount installation, flange mounting feature, 26.5 GHz maximum frequency, -65°C to 165°C operating temperature range, 335 V voltage rating, beryllium copper center contacts, stainless steel body construction, polyetherimide dielectric material, 500 mating cycles, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating.

The primary distinction between substitute parts lies in the mounting hole configuration. The RFSMAA2PEGC features a 2-hole flange mount design, while the RFSMAA4PCCA provides a 4-hole flange mount alternative. The RFSMAA2PEGA maintains the 2-hole configuration identical to the main part. All three parts are manufactured by Bulgin and share the same base product number RFSMA.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—RFSMAA2PEGC, RFSMAA2PEGA, and RFSMAA4PCCA—maintain active product status and are ROHS3 compliant, ensuring regulatory compliance for current applications. Selection between these parts is determined by panel mounting hole requirements. The RFSMAA2PEGC and RFSMAA2PEGA are functionally equivalent with identical 2-hole flange mount configurations and are suitable for applications requiring this specific mounting pattern. The RFSMAA4PCCA provides a 4-hole flange mount alternative for applications where additional mechanical stability or different panel hole spacing is required. All parts share identical electrical characteristics, thermal ratings, and mechanical durability specifications, making them interchangeable from an RF performance perspective when mounting hole configuration permits.
