RJSNE5380A8 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RJSNE5380A8 is a shielded modular jack connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) connector features a 90° right-angle orientation with through-hole solder termination and integrated EMI finger shielding. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while meeting current product availability and compliance standards.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNE5380A8 is determined by strict equivalence across 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: Solder
• Shielding: Shielded, EMI Finger
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold, 50.0µin (1.27µm)
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The RJSAE5380A8 qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all mandatory parameters. The substitute part is manufactured by the same supplier (Amphenol ICC, Commercial Products) and maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: RJSAE5380A8 is active, whereas RJSNE5380A8 is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE5380A8 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete RJSNE5380A8. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The RJSAE5380A8 maintains active product status with Amphenol ICC, ensuring continued availability, manufacturing support, and supply chain reliability. The RJSNE5380A8 is obsolete and subject to discontinuation.

Compliance Certification: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1, Unlimited). Both carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical parameters—connector type, contact configuration, orientation, termination method, shielding, contact material, finish specification, and housing material—are identical between the main part and substitute.

Operating Temperature: The RJSAE5380A8 provides an extended lower operating temperature limit (-55°C versus -40°C), offering enhanced performance margin in cold-temperature applications while maintaining the identical upper limit of 85°C.

Packaging Consideration: The RJSAE5380A8 is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the main part packaging is not specified. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE5380A8 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE5380A8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE5380A8 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RJSNE5380A8. All contact configurations, termination methods, shielding specifications, and material compositions are identical. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The RJSNE5380A8 is classified as obsolete. The RJSAE5380A8 is the active equivalent from the same manufacturer, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature specifications?

A: The RJSAE5380A8 supports an extended lower operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C) compared to the RJSNE5380A8 (-40°C to 85°C). Both maintain the same upper temperature limit. This difference does not restrict substitution; the substitute part provides enhanced cold-temperature capability.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5380A8 and RJSAE5380A8 are RoHS compliant with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1, Unlimited) ratings.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The RJSAE5380A8 is supplied in Tray packaging. The RJSNE5380A8 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement department to ensure compatibility with assembly processes.

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. Contact material and finish specifications are identical.

Q: Can the RJSAE5380A8 be used in new product designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE5380A8 is an active product with full manufacturing support from Amphenol ICC. It is suitable for new designs requiring 8p8c shielded modular jack connectors with 90° right-angle through-hole solder termination.
