305-058-520-502

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-058-520-502 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for dual-edge board insertion. It features 58 positions with a contact spacing of 3.96 mm (0.156 inches) and a row spacing of 3.56 mm. The connector accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inches). Constructed with copper alloy contacts gold-plated for reliability, it utilizes a thermoplastic insulator body. Rated for 5 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and maintains an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row configuration supporting 58 positions for high-density interconnects
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable signal transmission
• Low-profile thermoplastic insulator body accommodates standard 0.062-inch PCBs

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust panel-mounted connections
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing standard card edge interfaces
• Test and measurement instrumentation needing reliable signal routing

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact plating thickness and material specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before integration. Cross-reference the 58-position count and dual-row layout with system design requirements to prevent mechanical mismatch during assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge interface with 3.96 mm pitch is required. The 5 A rating and wide operating temperature range suit demanding environments. Confirm that the vertical mounting style aligns with the chassis or panel design constraints for proper installation.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting options, providing flexibility for different board densities. The 305-058-520-502 specifically addresses applications needing 58 contacts in a dual-row arrangement with standard industrial electrical ratings.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 305 series variants with matching 58 positions and 3.96 mm pitch, such as 305-058-520-504 if color coding differs but electrical specs remain identical. Verify mechanical dimensions and termination type compatibility before substitution.
