Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TIC-L022-24 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

Connector type: RJ45 Jack (8p8c modular connector)
Port configuration: 8 ports in 2-row arrangement
Mounting method: Through-hole solder termination
Orientation: 90° right-angle
Shielding: Shielded construction with EMI finger protection
Contact material and finish: Phosphor bronze with gold plating
Mechanical form factor: Comparable height and footprint

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

Operating temperature range (minimum -40°C to maximum 85°C acceptable)
Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1 (unlimited)
Tab direction: Up and down configuration
Electrical rating: Cat3 or Cat5 Ethernet standards

All identified substitute parts meet these core criteria. Variations in contact finish thickness, housing material composition, and RoHS compliance status do not preclude functional substitution when electrical and mechanical parameters align.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Highest Compatibility):

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors parts 1-5569262-1, 5569262-1, and 5569257-1 provide direct functional equivalence to the TIC-L022-24. These parts maintain 8-port configuration, through-hole solder termination, 90° right-angle orientation, and shielded EMI finger construction. All three are active products with RoHS compliance certification, addressing the obsolescence status of the original Tamura component. The extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) exceeds the original specification, providing enhanced thermal margin for system applications.

Secondary Substitute (Port Configuration Variance):

The Pulse Electronics E6588-A59125-L presents a single-port RJ45 connector with equivalent electrical and mechanical characteristics. This part is suitable for applications requiring individual port replacement or modular connector implementation where 8-port integration is not required. The Cat5 rating and shielded EMI finger construction maintain signal integrity specifications.

Compliance Consideration:

The original TIC-L022-24 is RoHS non-compliant. All identified substitutes are RoHS compliant (RoHS or ROHS3), supporting regulatory requirements for new designs and system upgrades. This compliance transition is a primary driver for substitution in modern manufacturing environments.

Temperature Range Limitation:

Part 1734715-2 operates to 70°C maximum, below the original 85°C specification. This part is suitable only for applications with confirmed operating temperature ceiling below 70°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TIC-L022-24 be directly replaced with any of the listed substitutes?

A: Yes, for applications requiring 8-port configuration. Parts 1-5569262-1, 5569262-1, and 5569257-1 are direct functional equivalents. The Pulse Electronics E6588-A59125-L is a single-port alternative suitable for different application architectures.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The TIC-L022-24 is classified as obsolete. All substitute parts are active products with current manufacturing support and RoHS compliance certification, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish thickness between the main part and substitutes?

A: Yes. The TIC-L022-24 specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) contact finish thickness. Substitute parts specify 15.0µin to 50.0µin thickness. These variations do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility for standard Ethernet applications.

Q: Which substitute offers the widest operating temperature range?

A: Parts 1-5569262-1, 5569257-1, and 5569262-1 all operate from -40°C to 85°C, matching or exceeding the original specification. Part 1734715-2 is limited to -40°C to 70°C.

Q: What is the difference between EMI Finger and standard shielding?

A: EMI Finger shielding includes additional contact fingers that provide enhanced electromagnetic interference suppression. Parts with EMI Finger designation (1-5569262-1, 1734715-2, 5569262-1, E6588-A59125-L) offer superior EMI performance compared to standard shielding (5569257-1).

Q: Are packaging differences significant for substitution?

A: Packaging (Tray, Tube, Bulk) affects logistics and handling but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility. Select packaging based on procurement volume and inventory management requirements.

Q: Can the single-port E6588-A59125-L replace an 8-port configuration?

A: No, not directly. The E6588-A59125-L is a single-port connector suitable for applications requiring individual RJ45 jacks. For 8-port modular implementations, use multi-port equivalents (1-5569262-1, 1734715-2, 5569257-1, or 5569262-1).

Q: Is RoHS compliance mandatory for substitution?

A: RoHS compliance is not mandatory for substitution from an electrical standpoint. However, all identified active substitutes are RoHS compliant, supporting modern manufacturing and regulatory requirements. The original TIC-L022-24 non-compliance status is a key driver for transition to compliant alternatives.

Q: What housing material differences exist?

A: The TIC-L022-24 uses Polyamide (PA6T) Nylon 6T. Substitutes use Polycyclohexylenedimethylene Terephthalate (PCT) Polyester or Polyamide (PA46) Nylon 4/6 Glass Filled. These materials provide equivalent mechanical and thermal performance for standard applications.
