Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete RJSNE5389A8 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the modular connector category. The substitute part RJSAE5389A8 maintains compatibility through identical specifications in the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Jack)
• Contact configuration (8p8c RJ45, Ethernet)
• Port and row configuration (8 ports, 2 rows)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Orientation (90° Angle Right)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Shielding architecture (Shielded, EMI Finger)
• Contact material and finish (Phosphor Bronze, Gold 50.0µin)
• Housing material (Thermoplastic)
• Tab direction (Up and Down)
• RoHS compliance status

The substitute part differs in product status (Active versus Obsolete) and operating temperature maximum specification, which represents a functional constraint rather than an incompatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE5389A8 serves as the direct active equivalent for the obsolete RJSNE5389A8. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical connector parameters. Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification, satisfying regulatory requirements for new designs and production environments.

Selection of RJSAE5389A8 is appropriate for applications requiring active product status and ongoing manufacturer support. The operating temperature maximum of -40°C ~ 70°C for RJSAE5389A8 compared to -40°C ~ 85°C for RJSNE5389A8 represents the primary specification variance. Applications operating continuously above 70°C require evaluation of thermal performance requirements against the substitute part's rated specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE5389A8 be used as a direct replacement for RJSNE5389A8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, contact configuration, mounting type, orientation, termination method, shielding architecture, contact material and finish, housing material, and tab direction. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for applications within the operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 70°C.

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

A: The RJSNE5389A8 is classified as obsolete, while RJSAE5389A8 is active. The operating temperature maximum differs: RJSNE5389A8 operates to 85°C, while RJSAE5389A8 operates to 70°C. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RJSNE5389A8 and RJSAE5389A8 are RoHS compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for lead-free manufacturing and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the through-hole mounting configuration for these connectors?

A: Both parts feature through-hole solder termination with 8 ports arranged in 2 rows, compatible with standard PCB pad layouts for 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) modular jack connectors.

Q: Does the operating temperature difference affect connector performance?

A: The operating temperature specification defines the maximum continuous operating environment for which the connector is rated. Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate thermal performance requirements against the RJSAE5389A8 specification. The RJSNE5389A8 specification of -40°C ~ 85°C provides extended high-temperature capability.

Q: Are the shielding and EMI characteristics identical?

A: Yes. Both parts feature shielded construction with EMI finger design, providing equivalent electromagnetic interference protection for Ethernet and modular connector applications.
