RJSNE528908 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RJSNE528908 is a modular jack connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products), designed for 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) applications with 90° right-angle orientation. This through-hole solder-terminated connector features a green LED indicator and phosphor bronze gold-plated contacts rated for -40°C to 85°C operation.

The RJSNE528908 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure design continuity, maintain supply chain reliability, and support legacy system maintenance where this connector type remains in use.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNE528908 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector type: Jack
• Contact configuration: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Number of ports: 8
• Number of rows: 2
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination method: Solder
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact finish: Gold
• Housing material: Thermoplastic
• LED color: Green
• Tab direction: Up and Down

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Operating temperature range (substitute may extend the range)
• Shielding configuration (unshielded substitute acceptable for unshielded applications)
• Product status (active substitutes acceptable for obsolete parts)
• Additional features (board lock feature does not prevent substitution)

The RJSAE508208 qualifies as a substitute based on full alignment with all mandatory parameters and acceptable variation in operating temperature range and shielding designation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RJSAE508208 as Primary Substitute:

The RJSAE508208 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RJSNE528908. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 8p8c RJ45 jack connector in 90° right-angle through-hole solder configuration.

Compliance and Certification: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with current manufacturing and environmental standards.

Operational Advantages of RJSAE508208:

• Extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 85°C) provides broader thermal tolerance
• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain support
• Board lock feature provides enhanced mechanical retention without affecting electrical or mechanical compatibility

Selection Criteria: Use RJSAE508208 for new designs, redesigns, or legacy system maintenance where the RJSNE528908 is no longer available. The substitute maintains full functional and mechanical compatibility while offering improved supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE508208 directly replace RJSNE528908 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for connector type, contact configuration (8p8c RJ45), orientation (90° right-angle), mounting method (through-hole solder), contact materials, and finish. The RJSAE508208 includes a board lock feature and extended temperature range, which do not affect compatibility.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: RJSNE528908 operates from -40°C to 85°C. RJSAE508208 operates from -55°C to 85°C. The substitute provides a 15°C lower minimum temperature rating, expanding operational capability without reducing the upper limit.

Q: Does the board lock feature on RJSAE508208 affect mechanical fit?

A: No. The board lock feature is an additional retention mechanism that does not alter the connector's footprint, pin configuration, or through-hole mounting dimensions. It provides enhanced mechanical stability without affecting compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RJSNE528908 and RJSAE508208 are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: RJSNE528908 packaging is not specified in the provided data. RJSAE508208 is supplied in Tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Why is RJSNE528908 marked as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer. RJSAE508208, as an active product from the same manufacturer with equivalent specifications, serves as the current production alternative.

Q: Can RJSAE508208 be used in shielded applications?

A: RJSAE508208 is designated as unshielded. If shielding is required for your application, verify that the original RJSNE528908 design did not depend on shielding characteristics before substitution.
