Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute compatibility for the RJSNEG08G08 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Contact Configuration: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) — identical pin count and Ethernet standard compliance
• Connector Type: Jack — matching functional role in circuit assembly
• Mounting Type: Through Hole — identical PCB integration method
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right) — same mechanical footprint and board space requirements
• Termination: Solder — identical soldering process and pad layout
• Shielding: Unshielded — equivalent electromagnetic environment compliance
• Contact Material and Finish: Phosphor Bronze with Gold plating — electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance equivalence
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic — mechanical durability and assembly compatibility
• RoHS Compliance: Both parts certified for RoHS compliance

The RJSAE508508 meets all critical substitution criteria while operating within an extended temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508508 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNEG08G08. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) jack connector configuration. The RJSAE508508 is currently in active production status, ensuring supply chain continuity and technical support availability.

The RJSAE508508 provides an extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C), increasing design flexibility for applications requiring lower temperature performance. The higher contact finish thickness (50.0µin versus 15.0µin) on the RJSAE508508 offers enhanced contact durability and corrosion resistance.

Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification and MSL 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard electronic assembly processes without environmental restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the RJSNEG08G08 and RJSAE508508 pinout-compatible? A: Yes. Both connectors conform to the 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) standard with identical contact configurations, pin assignments, and electrical interfaces.

Q: Can the RJSAE508508 be directly substituted in PCB designs using the RJSNEG08G08? A: Yes. Both connectors share identical through-hole solder termination, 90° right-angle orientation, and mechanical footprint. No PCB redesign is required.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness difference? A: The RJSAE508508 features a thicker gold plating (50.0µin versus 15.0µin), providing enhanced durability and corrosion resistance during component handling and thermal cycling.

Q: Why does the RJSAE508508 have a lower minimum operating temperature? A: The RJSAE508508 is rated for -55°C minimum temperature, compared to -40°C for the RJSNEG08G08. This extended range allows deployment in applications requiring lower temperature performance without additional qualification.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts? A: The RJSNEG08G08 packaging specification is not detailed. The RJSAE508508 is supplied in Tray packaging, which is standard for commercial modular connector applications and facilitates efficient storage and assembly line handling.

Q: Are both parts RoHS-compliant? A: Yes. Both RJSNEG08G08 and RJSAE508508 are certified as RoHS Compliant, conforming to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive for commercial electronics manufacturing.

Q: What is MSL 1 rating? A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates unlimited floor life. These connectors have no moisture-induced damage limitations and do not require special dry-storage or handling procedures prior to assembly.
