Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 172102H243 (Amphenol RF) qualifies as an equivalent based on the following matching parameters:

Matching Electrical Parameters:

• Connector Style: N Type (identical RF interface)
• Connector Type: Plug, Male Pin (identical gender and pin configuration)
• Fastening Type: Threaded (identical mechanical coupling)
• Frequency - Max: 11 GHz (within operational range; SBC9913C operates to 12 GHz)
• Impedance: 50 Ohms (standard N Type specification)
• Voltage Rating: 1500 V (exceeds SBC9913C requirement of 1000 V)
• Mating Cycles: 500 (identical durability rating)
• Ingress Protection: Weatherproof (identical environmental protection)

Matching Mechanical Parameters:

• Shield Termination: Crimp (identical cable attachment method)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line) (compatible with cable-mounted applications)

Matching Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (meets regulatory requirement)
• ECCN: EAR99 (identical export classification)
• HTSUS: 8536.69.4010 (identical tariff classification)

Cable Compatibility:

• 172102H243 supports Belden 9913 cable group (primary cable for SBC9913C)
• Additional cable compatibility: Belden 9914, LMR-400

The substitution is valid for applications where the specified parameters are the controlling factors for connector selection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (SBC9913C): Select SBC9913C when:

• Belden 9913 cable is the specified interconnect medium
• 12 GHz maximum frequency operation is required
• Winchester Interconnect is the approved manufacturer
• RoHS Compliant status is the regulatory requirement
• Inventory availability of 961 units meets project timeline

Substitute Part Selection (172102H243): Select 172102H243 when:

• Application frequency requirement does not exceed 11 GHz
• Amphenol RF is an approved alternate manufacturer
• Higher inventory availability (3517 units) is advantageous
• ROHS3 Compliant status satisfies regulatory requirements
• Lower insertion loss (0.15 dB vs 0.2 dB) provides performance benefit
• Cable compatibility with Belden 9913, 9914, or LMR-400 is acceptable
• Higher voltage rating (1500 V vs 1000 V) provides design margin

Both parts share identical N Type connector style, male pin configuration, crimp shield termination, threaded fastening, 500 mating cycles, and weatherproof ingress protection. Selection between them depends on frequency ceiling requirements and manufacturer approval status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 172102H243 be used in place of SBC9913C in all applications?

A: No. The 172102H243 has a maximum frequency rating of 11 GHz, while the SBC9913C operates to 12 GHz. Substitution is valid only for applications where the operating frequency does not exceed 11 GHz. Verify application frequency requirements before substitution.

Q: Are the physical mating interfaces identical between these two connectors?

A: Yes. Both connectors use the N Type connector style with male pin configuration and threaded fastening. They are mechanically compatible for mating with standard N Type female receptacles.

Q: What is the difference in insertion loss between these parts?

A: The SBC9913C has 0.2 dB insertion loss, while the 172102H243 has 0.15 dB insertion loss. The 172102H243 provides 0.05 dB lower loss, which may be beneficial in signal-critical applications.

Q: Are both connectors compatible with Belden 9913 cable?

A: Yes. Both the SBC9913C and 172102H243 are compatible with Belden 9913 cable. The 172102H243 additionally supports Belden 9914 and LMR-400 cables.

Q: What is the voltage rating difference, and does it matter?

A: The SBC9913C is rated for 1000 V, while the 172102H243 is rated for 1500 V. The 172102H243 provides 500 V additional margin. For applications operating below 1000 V, both are acceptable. For applications approaching 1000 V, the 172102H243 provides additional safety margin.

Q: Do both connectors meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. The SBC9913C is RoHS Compliant, and the 172102H243 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements. ROHS3 represents the current standard revision.

Q: What is the difference in mating cycle ratings?

A: Both connectors are rated for 500 mating cycles. There is no difference in mechanical durability specification.

Q: Is the weatherproof rating identical?

A: Yes. Both connectors provide weatherproof ingress protection, making them suitable for outdoor and harsh environment applications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on application frequency requirements and manufacturer approval. For applications not requiring 12 GHz operation, the 172102H243 offers higher inventory availability and lower insertion loss. For applications requiring 12 GHz capability, the SBC9913C is the appropriate selection.
