Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNE528H08 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
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Termination Method: Solder
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold with 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• Tab Direction: Up and Down
• LED Color: Green, Yellow - Green
• RoHS Compliance: Required

Allowable Variations:

• Operating Temperature Range: Substitute may extend the range (lower minimum or higher maximum)
• Shielding: Substitute may add shielding features not present in the original part
• Product Status: Active status is preferred over Obsolete

The RJSAE538H08 meets all mandatory matching parameters and represents a direct functional equivalent with enhanced shielding capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RJSAE538H08 as Primary Substitute:

The RJSAE538H08 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete RJSNE528H08. Both connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 8p8c RJ45 configuration, 90° right-angle through-hole solder termination, phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating, and thermoplastic housing.

Advantages of RJSAE538H08:

• Active product status ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C) provides broader environmental compatibility compared to the original part (-40°C to 85°C)
• Integrated shielding with EMI finger provides enhanced electromagnetic interference protection without requiring design modification
• Identical footprint and pin configuration enable direct PCB layout compatibility
• RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating match the original specification

Compliance Verification: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring regulatory and manufacturing process compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE538H08 be used as a direct replacement for RJSNE528H08 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE538H08 maintains identical through-hole mounting footprint, pin configuration, and solder termination method. No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution.

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

A: The RJSAE538H08 includes shielding with an EMI finger, whereas the RJSNE528H08 is unshielded. This enhancement provides improved electromagnetic interference rejection without affecting mechanical or electrical compatibility.

Q: Does the extended temperature range of RJSAE538H08 (-55°C to 85°C) affect compatibility?

A: No. An extended operating temperature range represents an improvement and does not create compatibility issues. Applications operating within the original -40°C to 85°C range will function identically.

Q: Are there any design considerations when switching from RJSNE528H08 to RJSAE538H08?

A: No design changes are necessary. The substitute part is mechanically and electrically compatible. The added shielding may provide performance benefits in environments with electromagnetic noise.

Q: What is the inventory status for these parts?

A: RJSNE528H08 is obsolete with 700 pieces in stock. RJSAE538H08 is an active product with 960 pieces in stock, ensuring reliable long-term availability.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RJSNE528H08 and RJSAE538H08 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Can RJSAE538H08 be used in high-speed Ethernet applications?

A: Both connectors are 8p8c RJ45 modular jacks with identical contact specifications. Application suitability depends on the complete system design and cable specifications, not on the connector type alone.
