RJSNE5387A8 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RJSNE5387A8 is a modular jack connector (RJ45/Ethernet) manufactured by Amphenol ICC, designed for 8-position 8-contact applications with 90° right-angle orientation and shielding. This part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of suitable alternatives for new designs and component procurement. The product maintains RoHS compliance and features integrated EMI shielding with dual-color LED indicators (Red-Green), making it suitable for Ethernet and network interface applications requiring board-mounted connectivity with enhanced electromagnetic interference protection.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Direct substitution for the RJSNE5387A8 is based on strict equivalence in core electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria define substitute compatibility:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack Modular (RJ45/Ethernet)
• Position/Contact Configuration: 8p8c
• Orientation: 90° Right-Angle
• Mounting: Through Hole, Solder Termination
• Shielding: Shielded with EMI Finger
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• Tab Direction: Up and Down

The RJSAE5387A8 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters, with variation occurring in operating temperature range and product lifecycle status.

Parameter Comparison

*Conditional: RJSAE5387A8 supports -40°C to 70°C operating range, which is narrower than the RJSNE5387A8 (-40°C to 85°C). Applications requiring operation above 70°C require thermal validation.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE5387A8 is recommended as the primary substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5387A8. This substitution is supported by:

Compliance and Certification:

• Both parts maintain RoHS compliance
• Identical electrical and mechanical interface parameters

Product Status Consideration:

• RJSNE5387A8 is classified as obsolete with limited long-term availability
• RJSAE5387A8 holds active product status, ensuring supply continuity and manufacturing consistency

Operational Parameter Variance:

• The RJSAE5387A8 operates within -40°C to 70°C, reducing the upper temperature limit by 15°C compared to the original part. Design applications operating above 70°C must conduct thermal analysis to confirm functional compatibility within the revised specification.

For designs with no thermal constraints above 70°C, the RJSAE5387A8 provides full functional and physical interchangeability without modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE5387A8 directly replace RJSNE5387A8 in existing designs? A: Yes, for applications operating within -40°C to 70°C. The connector geometry, contact configuration, mounting method, and shielding are identical. Designs requiring operation above 70°C require thermal performance validation.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts? A: Yes. RJSNE5387A8 is supplied with standard packaging, while RJSAE5387A8 is packaged in boxes. This affects handling and storage but does not alter component functionality or performance.

Q: What are the inventory implications of this substitution? A: RJSNE5387A8 is classified as obsolete with limited stock availability. RJSAE5387A8 maintains active status with confirmed stock of 800 units, providing reliable supply for new procurements and production runs.

Q: Do both parts support the same LED indicator functionality? A: Yes. Both RJSNE5387A8 and RJSAE5387A8 incorporate red-green dual-color LED indicators with identical tab orientation (up and down).

Q: What determines compatibility for this connector category? A: Substitution is based on matching connector type (RJ45 jack), position configuration (8p8c), orientation (90° right-angle), mounting method (through-hole solder), shielding type (EMI finger), contact metallurgy (phosphor bronze with gold finish), and housing material (thermoplastic). All these parameters are identical between the main part and substitute.
