RJSNEJF8VA8

Part Overview

The RJSNEJF8VA8 is a Jack Modular Connector with 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) configuration featuring 90° angle (right) orientation and shielding. Manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products), this through-hole soldered connector is designed for networked applications requiring right-angle PCB mounting. The main part has an obsolete product status, making identification of active substitute components essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RJSAE538B08 qualifies as an electrical and mechanical substitute for the RJSNEJF8VA8 based on the following critical parameters:

Matched Parameters:

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

The substitute maintains functional equivalence through identical connector topology, pinout configuration, and soldered termination method. Both components support the same 8p8c Ethernet standard and occupy the same PCB footprint for right-angle through-hole applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RJSAE538B08 is the primary substitute for RJSNEJF8VA8 applications. The substitute part maintains full functional compatibility while offering improvements in design continuity:

Product Status: The RJSAE538B08 holds active product status, ensuring long-term availability, continued manufacturer support, and access to updated documentation. The original RJSNEJF8VA8 has reached obsolete status.

Compliance: Both components maintain RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), confirming suitability for industrial and commercial environments without additional environmental controls.

Enhanced Specifications: The RJSAE538B08 provides extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 85°C) and increased gold contact finish thickness (50.0µin versus 30.0µin), supporting applications with stricter reliability requirements or extended environmental ranges.

Shielding Enhancement: The substitute includes EMI finger shielding in addition to standard shielding, providing improved electromagnetic interference rejection without altering mechanical compatibility or footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Will the RJSAE538B08 work in existing RJSNEJF8VA8 designs without PCB modification? A: Yes. Both connectors share identical through-hole mounting footprints, pinout configurations, and 90° right-angle orientations. Direct socket-level replacement is possible without redesign.

Q: What is the significance of the EMI Finger feature in the RJSAE538B08? A: The EMI finger provides enhanced electromagnetic shielding performance beyond standard shielded configurations. This improves signal integrity in high-speed Ethernet applications and reduces crosstalk in densely populated connector arrays.

Q: Does the difference in contact finish thickness affect electrical performance? A: The increased gold finish thickness (50.0µin on RJSAE538B08 versus 30.0µin on RJSNEJF8VA8) enhances durability and contact longevity under repeated mating cycles. Both finishes meet gold plating specifications for reliable low-resistance connections.

Q: Can RJSAE538B08 be used in applications requiring the original -40°C lower temperature limit? A: Yes. The RJSAE538B08 supports -55°C to 85°C operation, extending compatibility below the original -40°C specification. This provides margin for applications at the original lower temperature boundary.

Q: Is packaging format a consideration for design substitution? A: The RJSNEJF8VA8 packaging type was not specified in available data. The RJSAE538B08 is supplied in Tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements with procurement to confirm compatibility with assembly processes and handling specifications.
