Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNE5F8HA8 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Contact configuration: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Connector type: Jack
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination method: Solder
• Shielding: Shielded
• Number of ports: 8
• Number of rows: 2
• Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact finish: Gold with 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness
• Housing material: Thermoplastic
• Tab direction: Up and Down
• LED color: Green, Yellow-Green
• RoHS compliance: RoHS Compliant
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The RJSAE538H08 qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with all mandatory parameters. The substitute part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering enhanced EMI shielding through an integrated EMI finger and an extended operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538H08 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5F8HA8 based on the following engineering criteria:

Compliance and Certification Alignment: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with existing system requirements.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: The substitute part maintains identical contact configuration (8p8c RJ45), termination method (solder), mounting type (through-hole), and physical orientation (90° right-angle). Contact material, finish specification, and thickness are identical, ensuring signal integrity and connection reliability.

Product Status Advantage: The RJSAE538H08 holds active product status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete RJSNE5F8HA8.

Enhanced Shielding Performance: The substitute incorporates an integrated EMI finger in addition to standard shielding, providing improved electromagnetic interference rejection without compromising mechanical compatibility.

Extended Operating Temperature Range: The RJSAE538H08 supports operation from -55°C to 85°C, compared to the main part's -40°C to 85°C range, offering broader environmental compatibility for demanding applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE538H08 be used as a direct replacement for the RJSNE5F8HA8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE538H08 meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters of the RJSNE5F8HA8, including contact configuration, orientation, termination method, and shielding. Both parts are 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) shielded jacks with 90° right-angle through-hole solder termination and identical contact specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the shielding in these two parts?

A: The RJSNE5F8HA8 provides standard shielding. The RJSAE538H08 includes an integrated EMI finger in addition to shielding, offering enhanced electromagnetic interference rejection. This enhancement does not affect mechanical compatibility or pin configuration.

Q: Are there any temperature-related limitations when substituting?

A: No. The RJSAE538H08 operates across -55°C to 85°C, which encompasses the RJSNE5F8HA8 operating range of -40°C to 85°C. The substitute part is suitable for all applications within the original part's temperature specifications and extends capability to lower temperatures.

Q: Do both parts have the same LED indicator specifications?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5F8HA8 and RJSAE538H08 feature dual-color LED indicators (Green, Yellow-Green) with identical tab direction (Up and Down).

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The RJSNE5F8HA8 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited future availability. The RJSAE538H08 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturing, supply chain availability, and technical support from Amphenol ICC.

Q: Are the contact materials and finishes identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish at 50.0µin (1.27µm) thickness, ensuring identical electrical performance and connection reliability.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and environmental standards?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNE5F8HA8 and RJSAE538H08 are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, meeting identical regulatory and moisture sensitivity requirements.
