Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE508KA8 is determined by strict equivalence across 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
• LED Color: Yellow - Green, Orange
• Tab Direction: Up and Down
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 50.0µin (1.27µm)
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant

The RJSAE508KA8 meets all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is product status: RJSNE508KA8 is obsolete while RJSAE508KA8 is active, making the latter suitable for new procurement and design implementations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508KA8 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE508KA8. Both connectors are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, mounting orientation, termination method, and contact materials.

Selection Basis:

The RJSAE508KA8 is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement due to its active product status. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and are suitable for applications requiring 8p8c RJ45 Ethernet connectivity with integrated LED indicators.

The operating temperature range difference (-40°C ~ 85°C for RJSNE508KA8 versus -40°C ~ 70°C for RJSAE508KA8) should be evaluated against specific application requirements. Applications operating above 70°C require confirmation of thermal performance specifications for the RJSAE508KA8 or identification of alternative solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE508KA8 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE508KA8?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508KA8 meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters of the RJSNE508KA8, including connector type, contact configuration, mounting method, orientation, termination, and contact materials. The primary difference is product status: RJSAE508KA8 is active while RJSNE508KA8 is obsolete.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature specifications?

A: Yes. The RJSNE508KA8 operates from -40°C to 85°C, while the RJSAE508KA8 operates from -40°C to 70°C. Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate thermal performance requirements against the RJSAE508KA8 specifications.

Q: Do both connectors have the same LED indicator configuration?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE508KA8 and RJSAE508KA8 feature integrated LED indicators in yellow-green and orange colors.

Q: Are the contact materials and finishes identical?

A: Yes. Both connectors use phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness, ensuring equivalent electrical performance and reliability.

Q: What is the mounting configuration for both parts?

A: Both connectors are through-hole solder-terminated with 90° right-angle orientation and tab direction in both up and down positions, suitable for standard PCB mounting applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE508KA8 and RJSAE508KA8 are RoHS compliant.
