Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE5F8908 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

  • Connector type (Jack)
  • Contact configuration (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet)
  • Port count (8 ports)
  • Row configuration (2 rows)
  • Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
  • Contact finish (Gold, 50.0µin thickness)
  • Shielding (Shielded)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

  • Orientation (90° Angle Right)
  • Mounting type (Through Hole)
  • Termination method (Solder)
  • Housing material (Thermoplastic)
  • Tab direction (Up and Down)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

  • RoHS compliance status
  • Operating temperature range compatibility
  • LED indicator presence (Green)

The RJSAE5F8908 meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. Both connectors share identical contact configurations, shielding specifications, mounting characteristics, and termination methods. Compliance certifications align across both parts.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE5F8908 serves as a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5F8908. Both connectors are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical specifications across all critical contact, shielding, mounting, and termination parameters.

Selection Basis:

The RJSAE5F8908 is recommended for applications where the RJSNE5F8908 is no longer available. The substitute part maintains full compatibility with existing PCB layouts, mating connectors, and electrical performance requirements. Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification and feature identical contact materials, finishes, and shielding characteristics.

The operating temperature range of the RJSAE5F8908 (-40°C to 70°C) is narrower than the original part (-40°C to 85°C). Applications requiring operation above 70°C must evaluate this temperature differential against specific system requirements.

The RJSAE5F8908 carries an active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete RJSNE5F8908.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE5F8908 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE5F8908 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical dimensions, mounting hole patterns, and through-hole solder pad configurations. No PCB redesign is required for substitution.

Q: Are there electrical performance differences between these two connectors?

A: No. Both connectors feature identical contact materials (Phosphor Bronze), contact finishes (Gold, 50.0µin thickness), shielding specifications, and port configurations (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet).

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The RJSAE5F8908 operates from -40°C to 70°C, while the RJSNE5F8908 operates from -40°C to 85°C. Applications requiring sustained operation above 70°C must confirm compatibility with the substitute part's thermal specifications.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5F8908 and RJSAE5F8908 carry RoHS compliance certification.
