Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE538908 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility:

  • Connector type (Jack)
  • Contact configuration (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet)
  • Port and row count (8 ports, 2 rows)
  • Mounting method (Through Hole)
  • Orientation (90° Right Angle)
  • Termination type (Solder)
  • Shielding specification (Shielded with EMI Finger)

Material and Environmental Specifications:

  • Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
  • Contact finish (Gold at 50.0µin thickness)
  • Housing material (Thermoplastic)
  • Operating temperature range compatibility
  • RoHS compliance status
  • Moisture sensitivity level

The RJSAE538908 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE538908.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538908 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE538908. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical, mechanical, and material specifications across all critical parameters.

Compliance and Certification: Both parts carry RoHS Compliant status and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications, ensuring regulatory equivalence.

Operating Temperature Consideration: The RJSAE538908 extends the lower operating temperature limit to -55°C compared to the RJSNE538908 at -40°C. This represents an expanded operating range that maintains full compatibility with applications designed for the original part.

Product Status: The RJSAE538908 maintains active product status with current inventory availability (842 Pcs), providing reliable supply chain access compared to the obsolete RJSNE538908.

Packaging Difference: The RJSAE538908 is supplied in Tray packaging, whereas the RJSNE538908 packaging specification is not provided. This difference does not affect functional or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE538908 directly replace the RJSNE538908 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE538908 meets all electrical, mechanical, and material specifications of the RJSNE538908. Both connectors feature identical 8p8c RJ45 configurations, 90° right-angle orientation, through-hole solder termination, shielding with EMI finger, phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish, and thermoplastic housing. RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity levels are identical.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The RJSNE538908 operates from -40°C to 85°C, while the RJSAE538908 operates from -55°C to 85°C. The RJSAE538908 provides an extended lower temperature capability. Both maintain the same upper temperature limit of 85°C.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS Compliant status, ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8536.69.4040). Regulatory and compliance requirements are equivalent.

Q: Why is the RJSNE538908 listed as obsolete?

A: The RJSNE538908 carries obsolete product status. The RJSAE538908 is the active equivalent part from Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and is recommended for new designs and component replenishment.

Q: Does packaging affect compatibility?

A: No. The RJSAE538908 is supplied in Tray packaging while the RJSNE538908 packaging is not specified. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality, electrical performance, or mechanical fit.
