306-017-400-101

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 306-017-400-101 is a standard card edge connector receptacle featuring 34 positions arranged in a dual configuration with a 3.96 mm pitch. Designed for vertical panel mount installation, it utilizes solder eyelet termination and accepts board thicknesses of 1.57 mm. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy with tin plating, housed in a green thermoplastic polyester body.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact configuration for robust signal transmission
• Vertical mounting orientation suitable for panel integration
• Thermoplastic polyester housing provides structural stability

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable interconnects
• Communication equipment backplanes
• Medical device circuit boards

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating material and housing color variations. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm before procurement. Confirm that the vertical panel mount style aligns with the mechanical enclosure design requirements for proper fitment.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required for vertical applications. Consider the tin-plated contacts for general-purpose use and verify that the 34-position count matches the circuit interface needs. Evaluate the panel mount constraint against available space.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 306 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 306-017-400-101 specifically denotes the dual-edge variant with 34 positions and tin contacts, distinguishing it from single-edge or gold-plated alternatives within the same family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other EDAC 306 series parts with matching 34 positions and 3.96 mm pitch. Verify identical termination types and mounting orientations before swapping. Cross-reference mechanical dimensions to ensure panel cutout compatibility.
