• Matching contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Identical contact finish and thickness: Gold, 50.0µin (1.27µm)
• Equivalent shielding: Shielded with EMI finger

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Identical connector type: Jack modular connector
• Matching orientation: 90° angle (right)
• Same mounting type: Through hole
• Identical termination method: Solder
• Matching housing material: Thermoplastic
• Equivalent tab direction: Up and down
• Identical port and row configuration: 8 ports, 2 rows

Regulatory & Environmental:

• RoHS compliance maintained
• Green LED indicator present in both parts
• Operating temperature ranges within acceptable overlap

The RJSAE5382A8 is an active product from the same manufacturer, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE5382A8 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5382A8. Selection of the RJSAE5382A8 is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The RJSAE5382A8 maintains active product status with Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products), ensuring ongoing availability, manufacturing support, and supply chain continuity.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and carry identical HTSUS classification (8536.69.4040), confirming regulatory equivalence for import and export applications.

Electrical & Mechanical Equivalence: All critical parameters determining connector functionality and board integration are identical between the main part and substitute, including contact configuration, shielding architecture, termination method, and mechanical orientation.

Operating Temperature Consideration: The substitute part operates within the temperature range of -40°C to 70°C, which is contained within the main part's -40°C to 85°C range. Applications requiring operation above 70°C require alternative component evaluation.

Inventory Availability: The RJSAE5382A8 is available in production quantities (963 pieces in stock), supporting both prototype and volume production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE5382A8 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE5382A8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE5382A8 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RJSNE5382A8. All contact configurations, shielding, termination methods, and mechanical mounting parameters are identical. The substitute part can be used without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between the RJSNE5382A8 and RJSAE5382A8?

A: The primary differences are product status and operating temperature range. The RJSNE5382A8 is obsolete with an operating range of -40°C to 85°C, while the RJSAE5382A8 is an active product with an operating range of -40°C to 70°C. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues with PCB layouts designed for the RJSNE5382A8?

A: No. Both parts share identical through-hole mounting specifications, 90° right-angle orientation, and tab direction (up and down). PCB footprints and layouts require no modification.

Q: Does the RJSAE5382A8 include the board lock feature?

A: The RJSAE5382A8 specifications do not explicitly list board lock as a feature, unlike the RJSNE5382A8. Design requirements for board lock functionality should be confirmed with the manufacturer before substitution.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level of the RJSAE5382A8?

A: The RJSAE5382A8 has a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification of Not Applicable, compared to MSL 1 (Unlimited) for the RJSNE5382A8. This indicates different handling requirements during storage and assembly. Refer to manufacturer guidelines for proper storage conditions.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5382A8 and RJSAE5382A8 are RoHS compliant and carry identical HTSUS classification (8536.69.4040).

Q: What applications are these connectors suitable for?

A: These 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) shielded modular jack connectors are designed for Ethernet and network applications requiring EMI shielding, 90° board-mounted orientation, and solder termination.

Q: Can the RJSAE5382A8 be used in applications requiring operation above 70°C?

A: No. The RJSAE5382A8 operating temperature range is -40°C to 70°C. Applications requiring operation above 70°C require alternative component selection.
