Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RJSNEJ08208 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Jack
• Number of Positions/Contacts: 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet)
• Number of Ports: 8
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Orientation: 90° Angle (Right)
• Termination: Solder
• Shielding: Unshielded
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Housing Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The RJSAE508208 satisfies all mandatory matching parameters and is classified as an active product, making it a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete RJSNEJ08208.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE508208 is the direct substitute for the obsolete RJSNEJ08208. Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

Compliance Status: Both parts are RoHS Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, ensuring regulatory compliance and handling flexibility.

Operational Differences: The RJSAE508208 provides an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 85°C) and increased contact finish thickness (50.0µin versus 30.0µin), offering enhanced durability and thermal performance. The RJSAE508208 includes Board Lock feature and is supplied in Tray packaging.

Product Status: The transition from the obsolete RJSNEJ08208 (RJSNE series) to the active RJSAE508208 (RJSAE series) ensures long-term supply chain continuity and ongoing manufacturer support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RJSAE508208 be used as a direct replacement for RJSNEJ08208 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector type, contact configuration (8p8c RJ45), mounting method (through-hole solder), orientation (90° right-angle), and shielding characteristics (unshielded). The RJSAE508208 meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical requirements of the RJSNEJ08208.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are: (1) Product Status—RJSNEJ08208 is obsolete while RJSAE508208 is active; (2) Contact Finish Thickness—RJSAE508208 has 50.0µin versus 30.0µin; (3) Operating Temperature Range—RJSAE508208 extends to -55°C minimum; (4) Features—RJSAE508208 includes Board Lock; (5) Packaging—RJSAE508208 is supplied in Tray format.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layout or footprint?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts maintain identical through-hole mounting specifications, 90° right-angle orientation, and tab direction (up and down), ensuring identical PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the increased contact finish thickness in RJSAE508208?

A: The increased gold plating thickness (50.0µin versus 30.0µin) in RJSAE508208 provides enhanced contact durability and corrosion resistance, extending connector service life under repeated mating cycles.

Q: Does the Board Lock feature on RJSAE508208 affect mechanical compatibility?

A: The Board Lock feature on RJSAE508208 provides additional mechanical retention on the PCB without affecting electrical or thermal compatibility. This feature enhances mechanical stability during assembly and operation.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RJSNEJ08208 and RJSAE508208 are RoHS Compliant with identical MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings, ensuring regulatory compliance and unrestricted handling and storage.
