Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE508908 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack
• Number of Positions/Contacts: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Shielding: Unshielded
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold (50.0µin / 1.27µm)
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part RJSAE508908 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status (active versus obsolete) and the addition of a Board Lock feature in the substitute model. Operating temperature range extends to -55°C in the substitute, providing enhanced low-temperature performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508908 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete RJSNE508908. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, orientation, termination method, and material composition.

Selection Basis:

The RJSAE508908 is recommended for new designs and procurement due to active product status. The part maintains full compatibility with applications originally specified for the RJSNE508908. Both parts are RoHS Compliant and carry identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (HTSUS 8536.69.4040).

The RJSAE508908 provides extended low-temperature operating range (-55°C versus -40°C) and includes Board Lock functionality, offering enhanced mechanical retention without compromising electrical performance. These additions do not introduce incompatibility with existing designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE508908 be used as a direct replacement for RJSNE508908?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508908 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RJSNE508908 across all critical parameters. Both parts feature identical 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) jack configuration, 90° right-angle orientation, through-hole solder termination, unshielded design, and gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The RJSNE508908 is classified as obsolete, while the RJSAE508908 is an active production part. The RJSAE508908 includes Board Lock functionality and extends the low-temperature operating range to -55°C. These differences do not affect electrical compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between RJSNE508908 and RJSAE508908?

A: The RJSNE508908 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The RJSAE508908 is supplied in Tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification before ordering.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE508908 and RJSAE508908 are RoHS Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between these parts?

A: The RJSNE508908 operates from -40°C to 85°C. The RJSAE508908 operates from -55°C to 85°C. The substitute part provides 15°C additional low-temperature capability, suitable for extended environmental applications.

Q: Are the contact materials and finishes identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness, ensuring identical electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: What does the Board Lock feature on RJSAE508908 provide?

A: Board Lock is a mechanical retention feature that enhances connector stability on the printed circuit board. This feature does not affect electrical performance or compatibility with standard RJ45 plug connectors.
