Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 1-5406299-1 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors) qualifies as an equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and contact configuration: Both are 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) jack connectors
• Mechanical orientation: Both feature 90° right-angle mounting
• Mounting and termination: Both use through-hole mounting with solder termination
• Shielding specification: Both include shielded design with EMI finger
• Electrical rating: Both meet Cat5 specifications
• Operating temperature range: Both operate across -40°C ~ 85°C
• Regulatory compliance: Both are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected

Differences in contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze), contact finish thickness (30.0µin vs. 50.0µin), housing material (Thermoplastic vs. Polyamide/Nylon), and mechanical features (Board Lock vs. Board Guide) do not prevent functional substitution within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the SS-700810S-A-PG4-BA and 1-5406299-1 are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, packaging requirements (Bulk vs. Tray), and inventory levels. The Stewart Connector part currently has 4172 units in stock, while the TE Connectivity substitute has 5539 units available. Both parts meet identical electrical specifications and operating temperature requirements for Cat5 Ethernet applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-5406299-1 be used as a direct replacement for SS-700810S-A-PG4-BA?

A: Yes. Both connectors meet the same electrical specifications (8p8c, Cat5, shielded with EMI finger), mechanical orientation (90° right-angle), mounting type (through-hole solder), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C). Differences in contact material and housing material do not affect functional compatibility within these parameters.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze), contact finish thickness (30.0µin vs. 50.0µin), housing material (Thermoplastic vs. Polyamide/Nylon), mechanical features (Board Lock vs. Board Guide), and packaging format (Bulk vs. Tray). These differences do not impact electrical or mechanical substitution capability.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SS-700810S-A-PG4-BA and 1-5406299-1 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the difference between packaging types (Bulk vs. Tray)?

A: Bulk packaging typically provides loose components in larger quantities, while Tray packaging organizes components in structured trays for automated handling. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and handling equipment.

Q: Do both connectors support the same Cat5 rating?

A: Yes. Both connectors are rated for Cat5 Ethernet applications and meet identical electrical specifications for this category.
