Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508NA8 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete RJSNE508NA8. Both components are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical specifications across all critical electrical, mechanical, and functional parameters including connector type, contact configuration, mounting methodology, orientation, termination, shielding, LED indicators, contact materials, and finish specifications.

The RJSAE508NA8 holds active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance, satisfying regulatory requirements for current production environments.

A single operational difference exists in the maximum operating temperature specification. The RJSNE508NA8 operates across -40°C to 85°C, while the RJSAE508NA8 operates across -40°C to 70°C. Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate this temperature differential against specific thermal requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE508NA8 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE508NA8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508NA8 is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the RJSNE508NA8 across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, mounting type, orientation, termination method, shielding, LED indicators, contact materials, and finish specifications. Both components are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical physical and electrical characteristics.

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

A: The RJSNE508NA8 is classified as obsolete, while the RJSAE508NA8 is an active product.
