RJSNE5F8MA8

Part Overview

The RJSNE5F8MA8 is a Jack Modular Connector 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) with 90° right-angle orientation and shielding, manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This connector features through-hole solder termination, board lock functionality, and phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating. The product is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of suitable substitute components that maintain functional and electrical equivalency for existing designs and production requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RJSAE538708 qualifies as a functional substitute for the RJSNE5F8MA8 based on alignment across critical electrical and mechanical parameters that determine compatibility:

Matching Parameters:

• Connector type (Jack)
• Contact configuration (8p8c RJ45 Ethernet)
• Orientation (90° right angle)
• Mounting type (Through hole)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Shielding (Shielded)
• Contact material (Phosphor bronze)
• Contact finish and thickness (Gold, 50.0µin / 1.27µm)
• Housing material (Thermoplastic)
• RoHS compliance (RoHS Compliant)
• Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited)

Difference: The RJSAE538708 includes an EMI finger for enhanced electromagnetic interference shielding and operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C) compared to the original part (-40°C ~ 85°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538708 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete RJSNE5F8MA8. Both components share the same manufacturer and maintain identical core electrical and mechanical specifications for 8p8c RJ45 Ethernet jack connectors with right-angle orientation and through-hole solder termination.

The RJSAE538708 offers the additional benefit of active product status with ongoing manufacturer support and availability. The inclusion of EMI finger shielding provides equivalent or superior performance in applications requiring electromagnetic interference control. The extended temperature range (-55°C to +85°C versus -40°C to +85°C) ensures compatibility with installations operating at lower ambient temperatures.

Both components maintain RoHS compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, supporting use in the same environmental and regulatory contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the RJSNE5F8MA8 and RJSAE538708 pin-compatible? Both connectors implement the 8p8c (RJ45) standard with identical contact material, finish, and spacing. Pin compatibility is maintained for Ethernet applications.

Q: What is the functional difference between standard shielding and EMI finger shielding? The EMI finger in the RJSAE538708 provides additional electromagnetic interference suppression through enhanced shielding continuity. Standard shielding in both models meets basic EMI requirements for modular connector applications.

Q: Does the extended operating temperature range of the RJSAE538708 affect compatibility? No. The RJSAE538708 operates from -55°C to +85°C, which encompasses the original part's range of -40°C to +85°C. Designs operating within the original temperature window remain fully compatible.

Q: Are packaging considerations relevant for substitution? The RJSNE5F8MA8 was supplied without specified packaging. The RJSAE538708 is supplied in trays. Both connectors use identical solder termination methods and through-hole mounting, with no impact on circuit board integration or soldering processes.

Q: Do both parts support board lock functionality? Yes. Both the RJSNE5F8MA8 and RJSAE538708 include board lock features for mechanical retention on printed circuit boards.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences? Both components are RoHS Compliant with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1 - Unlimited) ratings. ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical.
