Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNEG080A8 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack
• Number of Positions/Contacts: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Shielding: Unshielded
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The RJSAE508008 satisfies all mandatory matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both connectors share identical functional and mechanical specifications for 8p8c modular jack applications with right-angle through-hole solder termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508008 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RJSNEG080A8. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Functional Equivalence: Both connectors are 8p8c modular jack connectors with identical electrical and mechanical specifications for RJ45 Ethernet applications. The 90° right-angle through-hole solder termination, unshielded design, and board lock features are identical.

Compliance Status: The RJSAE508008 maintains RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the original part.

Product Status: The RJSAE508008 is active and available in production quantities (1003 pcs in stock), whereas the RJSNEG080A8 is obsolete. This transition is necessary for supply chain continuity.

Enhanced Specifications: The RJSAE508008 provides superior contact finish thickness (50.0µin versus 15.0µin) and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 85°C), offering improved durability and environmental performance.

Packaging Consideration: The RJSAE508008 is supplied in tray packaging, which may differ from the original part's packaging specification. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE508008 be used as a direct replacement for RJSNEG080A8 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RJSAE508008 matches all critical functional and mechanical parameters of the RJSNEG080A8, including connector type, contact count, orientation, mounting method, termination, and shielding. Both are 8p8c modular jack connectors with identical electrical performance for RJ45 Ethernet applications.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status, contact finish thickness, and operating temperature range. The RJSNEG080A8 is obsolete with 15.0µin contact finish and -40°C to 85°C operating range. The RJSAE508008 is active with 50.0µin contact finish and -55°C to 85°C operating range. The substitute offers enhanced durability and extended low-temperature performance.

Q: Does the higher contact finish thickness of RJSAE508008 affect compatibility?

A: No. The increased contact finish thickness (50.0µin versus 15.0µin) is a material enhancement that improves contact durability and wear resistance. It does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility with mating components or PCB footprints.

Q: Are there any packaging differences I should consider?

A: The RJSAE508008 is supplied in tray packaging. Verify that this packaging format is compatible with your receiving, storage, and assembly processes. If the original part used different packaging, coordinate with your procurement team to ensure supply chain compatibility.

Q: Is the extended operating temperature range of RJSAE508008 a concern?

A: No. The extended lower operating limit (-55°C versus -40°C) represents an improvement. If your application operates within the original -40°C to 85°C range, the RJSAE508008 will perform equivalently or better. The extended range provides additional margin for extreme environmental conditions.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNEG080A8 and RJSAE508008 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring regulatory compliance and reliable performance in standard storage and assembly environments.
