305-030-555-207

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-030-555-207 is a standard card edge connector featuring 30 positions arranged in two rows with a 3.96 mm pitch. Designed for panel installation, it utilizes a vertical orientation and solder lug termination. The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, rated for 5 A current, while the thermoplastic housing supports operation between -40°C and +105°C. It accommodates a nominal PCB thickness of 1.57 mm and provides an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration with 3.96 mm contact spacing
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable conductivity
• Thermoplastic insulator body designed for low profile
• Accepts between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Panel-mounted electronic interconnect systems
• Industrial control module connections
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Test and measurement instrument interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code to confirm plating details and termination style. Confirm that the target application requires a 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness compatibility. Ensure the design allows for panel mounting and vertical insertion. Check for availability of compatible polarizing keys if signal isolation is required.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current card edge interface is needed for panel applications. The dual-row layout maximizes pin density within the specified pitch constraints. Verify that the thermal environment remains within the -40°C to +105°C operational range. Consider the mechanical stability provided by the solder lug termination for vibration-prone environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers extensive design options to tailor interconnect requirements. Components in this family typically feature gold-plated contacts and thermoplastic housings, providing consistent performance across various industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable edge-board connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include 305-030-555-208 and 305-030-520-207. These variants maintain the 30-position count and 3.96 mm pitch but may differ in termination style or plating specifications. Verify dimensional compatibility before substitution.
