305-060-500-504

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-060-500-504 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel mounting with vertical orientation. It features 60 positions arranged in a dual configuration with a 0.156-inch (3.96 mm) contact spacing. The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). It supports a continuous current rating of 5 A and withstands 1800 VACrms dielectric voltage.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Accepts between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys for secure alignment
• Low profile insulator body constructed from thermoplastic polyester
• Half-beam spring contact type ensures reliable electrical connection

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Panel-mounted electronic interconnect systems
• Industrial control modules requiring polarized keying
• High-density signal routing on 1.57 mm thick PCBs

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating thickness and insulation color. Ensure the target application board thickness falls within the specified range for proper mechanical retention. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-edge female connector with 60 positions is required for panel installation. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing robust mechanical stability. Verify that the system design accommodates the necessary polarizing key slots for correct mating orientation.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series of card edge connectors. The series is characterized by low-profile bodies and versatile mounting options. The 305-060 variant specifically addresses high-pin-count requirements while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for dense panel layouts.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include 305-060-500-201 and 305-060-521-504. These alternatives share identical mechanical dimensions and pin counts but may differ in insulation color or specific contact finish specifications.
