306-014-400-102

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 306-014-400-102 is a standard card edge connector receptacle featuring 14 positions in a single row. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact pitch and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The component employs gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission and supports a current rating of 5 A. Designed for panel mount installation, it offers a vertical orientation with solder pin termination. The housing is constructed from thermoplastic polyester, ensuring durability within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

• Telecommunications equipment backplanes

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the 306-014-400-102 to confirm RoHS compliance status and exact packaging quantities. Ensure that the receiving facility's inventory management system correctly identifies this part as a dual female connector variant if cross-referencing with similar series numbers. Confirm that the solder pin termination method aligns with the assembly process requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row configuration with a 3.96 mm pitch is required for panel mounting applications. The 14-position count suits moderate density interconnect needs. Verify that the target PCB thickness matches the 1.57 mm specification to ensure proper mechanical retention. Consider the 5 A current rating and thermal limits when designing the electrical layout for high-load scenarios.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by its robust thermoplastic construction and standardized spacing. While other variants in the series may offer different position counts or row configurations, this specific model provides a balanced solution for vertical panel mounting with reliable solder termination capabilities.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with identical pitch and board thickness but differing position counts, such as the 306-010-421-102 or 306-030-521-107. Ensure that any replacement maintains the 3.96 mm pitch and 1.57 mm board thickness compatibility to preserve mechanical fit.
