Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RJSNEJ08008 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack
• Number of Positions/Contacts: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Termination: Solder
• Tab Direction: Up and Down
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Compliance: Required

Allowable Variations:

• Shielding: Unshielded to Shielded (with EMI Finger) — acceptable for enhanced EMI performance
• Contact Finish Thickness: 30.0µin (0.76µm) to 50.0µin (1.27µm) — acceptable for improved durability
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C to -55°C ~ 85°C — acceptable for extended low-temperature operation
• Product Status: Obsolete to Active — preferred for ongoing availability

The RJSAE538008 qualifies as a substitute part based on these criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RJSAE538008 as Primary Substitute:

The RJSAE538008 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RJSNEJ08008. Both connectors are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical core specifications for connector type, contact configuration, mounting method, and termination approach.

The RJSAE538008 offers the following advantages:

• Active Product Status: Currently in active production with confirmed inventory availability (771 Pcs New Original In Stock), ensuring long-term supply chain support compared to the obsolete RJSNEJ08008.

• Enhanced Shielding: The addition of shielded design with EMI Finger provides improved electromagnetic interference rejection, suitable for environments with higher noise coupling risk.

• Improved Contact Durability: The increased contact finish thickness (50.0µin vs. 30.0µin) extends contact life and improves resistance to wear and corrosion.

• Extended Temperature Range: The -55°C lower operating limit provides additional margin for cold-environment applications.

• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain RoHS Compliance and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Mechanical and Electrical Compatibility:

The RJSAE538008 maintains full mechanical compatibility with the RJSNEJ08008 footprint, including identical through-hole mounting, 90° right-angle orientation, and board lock features. Electrical performance is compatible for standard 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RJSAE538008 directly replace the RJSNEJ08008 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical mounting footprints, through-hole solder termination, 90° right-angle orientation, and 8p8c contact configuration. The RJSAE538008 is mechanically and electrically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two connectors?

A: The RJSNEJ08008 is unshielded, while the RJSAE538008 includes shielded design with EMI Finger. The RJSAE538008 also features thicker gold plating (50.0µin vs. 30.0µin) and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C vs. -40°C minimum).

Q: Why is the RJSNEJ08008 listed as Obsolete?

A: The RJSNEJ08008 has been discontinued by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). The RJSAE538008 represents the current active product line for this connector category.

Q: Does the shielding on the RJSAE538008 affect PCB layout or design?

A: The shielding does not alter the through-hole footprint or mounting requirements. PCB layout remains identical. The EMI Finger provides additional grounding capability for improved noise immunity.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RJSNEJ08008 and RJSAE538008 are RoHS Compliant with identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The RJSNEJ08008 packaging is not specified in available data. The RJSAE538008 is supplied in Tray packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Is the contact material identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both connectors use Phosphor Bronze contacts with Gold finish. The RJSAE538008 provides thicker gold plating for enhanced durability.
