Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNE508DA8 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack
• Number of Positions/Contacts: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Number of Ports: 8
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Termination: Solder
• Shielding: Unshielded
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 50.0µin (1.27µm)
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant

The RJSAE508DA8 qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all mandatory parameters. The primary distinction is product status: RJSNE508DA8 is obsolete, while RJSAE508DA8 is active in production.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508DA8 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE508DA8. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

Selection Criteria:

1. Product Status: The RJSAE508DA8 is active in production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The RJSNE508DA8 is obsolete and subject to discontinuation.

2. Compliance: Both parts are RoHS Compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial applications.

3. Operating Temperature Consideration: The RJSNE508DA8 operates across -40°C to 85°C, while the RJSAE508DA8 operates across -40°C to 70°C. Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate thermal requirements against the substitute's upper temperature limit.

4. Moisture Sensitivity: The RJSNE508DA8 carries MSL 1 (Unlimited), while the RJSAE508DA8 is listed as Not Applicable. This distinction does not affect substitution eligibility for standard commercial applications.

For new designs and replacement applications, the RJSAE508DA8 is the recommended selection based on active product status and full parameter compatibility within the specified operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE508DA8 directly replace the RJSNE508DA8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508DA8 matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the RJSNE508DA8, including connector type, pin configuration, mounting method, orientation, termination, and contact specifications. Direct substitution is supported for applications operating within the RJSAE508DA8 temperature range of -40°C to 70°C.

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

A: The RJSNE508DA8 is obsolete, while the RJSAE508DA8 is active in production. The RJSNE508DA8 supports operation to 85°C, whereas the RJSAE508DA8 supports operation to 70°C. Both parts are otherwise functionally equivalent.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layouts or footprints?

A: No. Both parts share identical mounting specifications: through-hole solder termination, 90° right-angle orientation, and 2-row, 8-port configuration. Existing PCB designs require no modification for substitution.

Q: Does the MSL difference affect substitution?

A: No. The MSL difference does not impact substitution eligibility. MSL 1 (Unlimited) on the RJSNE508DA8 and Not Applicable on the RJSAE508DA8 reflect different classification methodologies and do not affect component performance or reliability in standard commercial applications.

Q: What applications are these connectors suitable for?

A: Both parts are 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) modular jack connectors designed for network and telecommunications applications requiring unshielded, right-angle through-hole connections with integrated LED indicators.

Q: Should I consider the operating temperature difference in my application?

A: Yes. If your application requires sustained operation above 70°C, the RJSAE508DA8 may not be suitable. Verify that your operating environment remains within the -40°C to 70°C range specified for the substitute part.
