Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNE5F89A8 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the modular connector category. The substitute part RJSAE538208 maintains functional compatibility through the following critical parameters:

• Connector type: Jack (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet)
• Contact configuration: 8 positions, 8 contacts
• Orientation: 90° right-angle
• Mounting method: Through-hole solder termination
• Shielding: Shielded construction
• Contact material and finish: Phosphor bronze with gold plating (50.0µin thickness)
• Compliance: RoHS compliant
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The RJSAE538208 represents an active product status alternative, addressing the obsolescence of the RJSNE5F89A8 while maintaining equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications for direct board-level substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538208 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5F89A8. Both connectors are manufactured by Amphenol ICC and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The RJSAE538208 offers the following advantages:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
• Extended lower operating temperature limit (-55°C versus -40°C) provides broader environmental compatibility
• Enhanced shielding with EMI finger construction improves electromagnetic interference rejection
• RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating match the original specification
• Identical contact material, finish thickness, and termination method ensure direct board-level compatibility

The RJSAE538208 is suitable for direct substitution in all applications previously specified for the RJSNE5F89A8 without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
