Whats the difference between a cap and rf cap?

example on 6s board

C5283_RF

and C3663

Both are 6.3V 4.7uF but one has RF. Can I put a regular 6.3V 4.7 Cap on the C5283_RF?

Its just a name, RF is added to all GSM components to differentiate them from other subsystems on the schematics

As Kradziej it´s the naming. EACH component has a unique name. RF stands for Radio Frequency, so all those compnnents related to radio schematics.
