RJSNE5F80A8

Part Overview

The RJSNE5F80A8 is a Jack Modular Connector (8p8c RJ45/Ethernet) manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This shielded, right-angle connector features through-hole solder termination with board lock functionality. The part is currently obsolete, making alternative solutions necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The RJSAE538008 serves as a direct substitute with enhanced EMI shielding capabilities and active product status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RJSAE538008 qualifies as a direct substitute for the RJSNE5F80A8 based on matching critical electrical and mechanical parameters: both connectors implement the 8p8c (RJ45/Ethernet) jack configuration, feature right-angle 90° mounting orientation, utilize solder termination, maintain phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating at 50.0µin thickness, and employ thermoplastic housings with board lock functionality. Both parts are shielded modular connectors with identical tab direction (up and down) and RoHS compliance.

The primary differentiators are: (1) the RJSAE538008 incorporates EMI Finger shielding enhancement, (2) the RJSAE538008 carries active product status versus the obsolete RJSNE5F80A8, and (3) the RJSAE538008 supports an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to +85°C) compared to the RJSNE5F80A8 (-40°C to +85°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538008 is the recommended substitute for the RJSNE5F80A8 due to the obsolete status of the original part. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications, ensuring regulatory alignment. The RJSAE538008 offers enhanced EMI shielding with integrated finger contacts and extended low-temperature operating range (-55°C versus -40°C minimum), providing improved electromagnetic performance and broader thermal operating margins for applications requiring enhanced signal integrity or extended temperature specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the RJSNE5F80A8 and RJSAE538008 mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature identical through-hole mounting, 90° right-angle orientation, solder termination, tab direction configuration (up and down), and board lock functionality. No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the EMI Finger feature in the RJSAE538008?

A: The EMI Finger provides enhanced electromagnetic interference shielding. This addition improves signal integrity in high-noise environments and is a technical enhancement over the standard shielding of the RJSNE5F80A8.

Q: Does the extended temperature range of the RJSAE538008 affect compatibility?

A: No. The extended operating range (-55°C to +85°C) in the RJSAE538008 is a superset of the RJSNE5F80A8 range (-40°C to +85°C), ensuring full compatibility across all temperature conditions supported by the original part.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these two connectors?

A: Yes. The RJSNE5F80A8 does not specify packaging, while the RJSAE538008 ships in Tray packaging. Verify component count and handling requirements for procurement.

Q: What is the contact finish thickness and does it affect electrical performance?

A: Both parts feature gold plating at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness on phosphor bronze contacts. This thickness is consistent and supports equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5F80A8 and RJSAE538008 are RoHS compliant and carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications for regulatory purposes.
