Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SI-60096-F is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Connector Type & Port Configuration: RJ45, 4-port configuration
• Mounting & Orientation: Through-hole mounting with 90° right-angle orientation
• Application Compatibility: 10/100 Base-T networking with AutoMDIX support
• Electrical Characteristics: Shielded design with EMI finger protection and gold-plated contacts
• Physical Constraints: Height above board within acceptable tolerance range for PCB layout compatibility
• Compliance & Environmental: RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating for unlimited moisture exposure

The J8064D648ANL from Pulse Electronics meets all substitution criteria within these parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SI-60096-F and J8064D648ANL are active products with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. The J8064D648ANL offers equivalent electrical and mechanical performance for 10/100 Base-T networking applications. The height differential of 0.36mm (0.550" vs 0.536") falls within typical PCB layout tolerances for through-hole connectors. Both connectors maintain identical MSL 1 ratings and support AutoMDIX functionality. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, lead time, packaging format (Stewart Connector standard packaging vs. Pulse Electronics tray packaging), and established supplier relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can J8064D648ANL directly replace SI-60096-F in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical RJ45 4-port configuration, through-hole mounting, 90° right-angle orientation, and 10/100 Base-T AutoMDIX support. The 0.36mm height difference is within standard PCB layout tolerances for this connector class.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: Differences are limited to manufacturer-specific materials and certifications. SI-60096-F uses copper alloy contacts and shield with 50.0µin gold finish thickness. J8064D648ANL uses phosphor bronze contacts and brass shield with 30.0µin gold finish thickness. Both achieve equivalent electrical performance for the specified applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. SI-60096-F is ROHS3 compliant. J8064D648ANL is RoHS compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for restricted substance elimination.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference?

A: SI-60096-F is supplied in standard packaging. J8064D648ANL is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format affects handling, storage, and integration into automated assembly processes but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are operating temperature ranges specified for these connectors?

A: Operating temperature is not specified for SI-60096-F. J8064D648ANL operates within 0°C to 70°C range. Verify thermal requirements against your specific application environment.
