305-050-500-202

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-050-500-202 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel mounting applications. It features a dual-edge female configuration with 50 positions arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and accommodates board thicknesses ranging from 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. Contacts are constructed from copper alloy with gold plating, rated for 5 A current. The housing is made of green thermoplastic polyester, supporting an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized EDAC distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and specific lot traceability requirements prior to purchase. Ensure ordering suffix matches exact mechanical and electrical specifications. Request official datasheets and dimensional drawings for integration validation. Maintain documentation of supply chain sources for quality assurance audits.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when panel-mounted dual-edge connectivity is required with a 3.96 mm pitch. Verify that the mating card thickness falls within the 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm specification range. Consider the 5 A current rating and -40°C to +105°C temperature limits for environmental compatibility. Evaluate the vertical panel mount style against available chassis space constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting configurations while maintaining consistent 3.96 mm pitch standards. The 305 series is engineered for robust industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable high-density interconnect solutions.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference compatible parts within the EDAC 305 series family for alternative position counts. Verify mechanical dimensions and pinout compatibility before substituting with other manufacturers' offerings. Consult official EDAC interchangeability guides for validated equivalent components.
