Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure compatibility with required PCB thickness and mounting hardware. Confirm that the 58-position configuration matches the target application's signal count. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern. Ensure the panel mount style aligns with the mechanical enclosure design before procurement.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge connection with 3.96 mm pitch is required for panels. Consider the 0.140-inch row spacing for density constraints. Verify that the 0.062-inch nominal PCB thickness fits the system design. Compare against other 305 series variants if different position counts or termination styles are needed for the specific assembly requirements.
