Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating thickness and insulation color. Ensure the target printed circuit board thickness falls within the specified mechanical tolerance range. Confirm that the required polarizing key type matches the connector's acceptance specifications before finalizing procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical, panel-mount solution is required for dual-edge cards. The 3.96 mm pitch and 24-position count define the interface density. Verify compatibility with existing polarizing key requirements and ensure the thermal environment remains within the -40°C to +105°C operational limits.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which provides various mounting styles and position counts. The series utilizes thermoplastic housings and offers options for different PCB thicknesses. It serves as a robust interconnect solution for high-reliability applications requiring secure card retention.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference other EDAC 305 Series variants with matching 24 positions and 3.96 mm pitch. Verify identical panel mounting orientation and dual-row configuration. Ensure substitute parts support the same polarizing key integration and current rating specifications.
