Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized EDAC distributors or certified suppliers. Confirm RoHS compliance status and specific lot traceability requirements before procurement. Ensure storage conditions maintain thermal stability within specified limits to preserve contact integrity and housing properties during handling and installation phases.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a 22-position dual-edge connector with 3.96 mm pitch is required for vertical panel mounting. Verify that the target PCB thickness matches the 1.57 mm specification to ensure proper mechanical engagement. Consider the 5 A current rating and operating temperature range against system electrical and environmental demands.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts while maintaining consistent 3.96 mm contact spacing and 3.56 mm row spacing. These connectors are engineered for high-reliability applications in industrial and commercial electronics where secure board-to-panel connections are critical.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference part numbers such as 305-022-520-203 or 305-022-520-268 for alternative configurations within the same series. Verify identical pin count, pitch, and mounting style compatibility before substitution.
