The substitute part 11_BNC-75-3-9/133_NE manufactured by Huber+Suhner, Inc. meets all these electrical and mechanical requirements, making it a parametric equivalent for applications requiring BNC 75 Ohm male plug connectors with crimp termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the VCP10-37M and 11_BNC-75-3-9/133_NE are active production parts with identical electrical and mechanical specifications for BNC 75 Ohm crimp connector applications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply chain availability and lead time requirements
• Operating temperature range requirements: The Huber+Suhner part supports -65°C to 165°C versus -55°C to 85°C for the Cinch part
• Regulatory compliance: The Huber+Suhner part carries ROHS3 compliance certification
• Body finish preference: Nickel (Cinch) versus White Bronze (Huber+Suhner)
• Dielectric material composition: PTFE only (Cinch) versus PFA/PTFE blend (Huber+Suhner)

Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications and are suitable for direct substitution in 75 Ohm RF coaxial connector applications operating at frequencies up to 1 GHz.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 11_BNC-75-3-9/133_NE replace the VCP10-37M in all applications?

A: Yes, for applications within the specified operating parameters. Both connectors meet identical electrical and mechanical requirements for BNC 75 Ohm male plug crimp termination. Verify that the operating temperature range of -65°C to 165°C for the Huber+Suhner part is compatible with your application requirements.

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

A: The primary differences are body finish (Nickel versus White Bronze), dielectric material composition (PTFE versus PFA/PTFE), operating temperature range (-55°C to 85°C versus -65°C to 165°C), and RoHS certification status (not specified versus ROHS3 Compliant).

Q: Are both parts suitable for 75 Ohm RF applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors are specified for 75 Ohm impedance with identical connector style, type, termination method, and fastening mechanism, making them suitable for equivalent RF coaxial applications up to 1 GHz.

Q: What is the mating cycle rating for these connectors?

A: Both the VCP10-37M and 11_BNC-75-3-9/133_NE are rated for 500 mating cycles.

Q: Do these connectors require specific crimp tools?

A: Both connectors use crimp termination for contact and shield. Verify that your crimp tooling is compatible with the specific connector body dimensions and contact specifications of the selected part.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. The VCP10-37M includes 3 pieces per connector (1 connector, 1 contact, 1 ferrule), while the Huber+Suhner part does not specify included components.
