305-014-555-207

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-014-555-207 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel mounting applications. It features a dual female configuration with 14 positions arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and accommodates printed circuit boards with a thickness range of 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm (0.054 to 0.070 inches). Electrical specifications include a current rating of 5 A and an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy with gold plating on the mating area, while the tails feature tin plating over nickel underplating. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact design for secure board insertion
• Gold-plated mating surfaces ensure reliable signal transmission
• Thermoplastic polyester insulator body provides structural stability
• Panel mount installation style with solder lug termination

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interface connections

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required termination plating and contact finish specifications. Confirm compatibility with the target PCB thickness within the specified tolerance range. Ensure the panel cutout dimensions align with the connector's flange characteristics for proper mechanical fit during assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required for panel-mounted systems. Consider the 5 A current rating and wide operating temperature range for robust industrial environments. Verify that the board thickness falls within the 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm acceptance window to ensure proper contact engagement.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options, all sharing a consistent 3.96 mm pitch. The 305 series is widely used in applications requiring durable, high-reliability interconnects for edge-board modules in demanding electronic systems.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include 305-014-521-202 and 305-014-500-207. These alternatives share identical pitch and position counts but may differ in termination plating or housing color. Verify electrical ratings and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
