306-011-500-104

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. part number 306-011-500-104 is a standard card edge connector receptacle from the 306 series. It features a dual female configuration with 22 positions and a contact spacing of 0.156 inches (3.96 mm). Designed for vertical panel mount installation, it accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). The contacts are gold-plated copper alloy, rated for 5 A current, housed in a thermoplastic polyester insulator.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual female contact configuration for secure board insertion
• Low profile insulator body design for space-constrained applications
• Vertical panel mount orientation for stable structural integration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

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

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct plating and material specifications. Confirm that the required board thickness matches the 0.062-inch nominal tolerance. Check regional availability as distribution status may vary by location. Ensure compliance with relevant RoHS directives if applicable to your manufacturing environment.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single central row connection is required with a 3.96 mm pitch. It is suitable for applications needing a robust panel-mount solution with high current capacity. Consider the low-profile housing if vertical clearance is limited. Ensure the mating PCB thickness aligns with the specified 1.57 mm requirement for optimal contact retention.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This connector belongs to the EDAC 306 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles.
