305-062-556-507

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-062-556-507 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 series, designed for panel mount applications with a vertical orientation. It features 62 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with a pitch of 3.96 mm (0.156 inches). The connector supports a maximum board thickness of 1.57 mm and utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts to ensure reliable signal transmission. Rated for 5 A current, it employs a solder lug termination type for secure PCB attachment.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-row contact configuration for high-density interconnects
• Gold-plated mating area for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Panel mount design with vertical installation angle
• Thermoplastic insulation housing for structural stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interfaces
• Test and measurement instrument modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix matches the required termination style and plating specifications. Confirm compatibility with the target PCB board thickness of 1.57 mm. Ensure the panel mounting holes align with the mechanical drawing dimensions. Check for RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the final assembly standards.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row card edge interface with a 3.96 mm pitch is required. The 62-position count suits applications needing moderate channel density. Consider the vertical panel mount style for chassis-based installations. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets the electrical load requirements of the connected circuitry.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options. The 305-062-556-507 variant specifically provides a dual-row layout with gold contacts and solder lug termination, distinguishing it from single-row or different pitch alternatives within the broader product family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 305 series parts with matching 3.96 mm pitch and 62 positions, such as 305-062-556-508, provided the termination style and flange features are verified against the original design constraints.
