Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE508RA8 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: Green, Orange - Green
  • 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 RJSAE508R08 meets all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is product status: RJSNE508RA8 is obsolete while RJSAE508R08 is active, making the latter suitable for ongoing procurement and design implementation.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508R08 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE508RA8. Both components are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, contact configuration, mounting method, termination style, and contact materials.

Both parts are RoHS Compliant, ensuring regulatory compliance for applications subject to environmental restrictions. The RJSAE508R08 carries active product status, providing assured long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete RJSNE508RA8.

The operating temperature range of the RJSAE508R08 (-40°C ~ 70°C) is narrower than the RJSNE508RA8 (-40°C ~ 85°C). Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate this specification against system thermal requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE508R08 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE508RA8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508R08 matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the RJSNE508RA8, including connector type, contact configuration, mounting method, termination style, and physical orientation. Both components are RoHS Compliant and manufactured by the same supplier.

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

A: The RJSNE508RA8 is classified as obsolete, while the RJSAE508R08 is active. The RJSAE508R08 also has a narrower operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 70°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C).

Q: Are there any thermal limitations when substituting the RJSAE508R08 for the RJSNE508RA8?

A: The RJSAE508R08 operates within -40°C to 70°C. If your application requires sustained operation above 70°C, the operating temperature specification must be evaluated against your system requirements.

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

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE508RA8 and RJSAE508R08 feature identical LED color specifications: Green, Orange - Green.

Q: Are the contact materials and finishes identical?

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

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level of the RJSAE508R08?

A: The RJSAE508R08 has a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of Not Applicable, compared to MSL 1 (Unlimited) for the RJSNE508RA8. This indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions for the substitute part.
