Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized EDAC distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and specific lot traceability requirements before procurement. Ensure storage conditions maintain material integrity. Check for any regional distribution restrictions that may affect availability. Validate technical specifications against final assembly drawings to prevent compatibility issues during integration.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-edge female connector with 14 positions is required. Ensure the mating PCB thickness falls within the 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm range. Verify that the application environment stays within the -40°C to +105°C operational limits. Confirm that the 3.96 mm pitch aligns with the system's layout constraints. Consider the right-angle panel mount style for space-efficient installations.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 307 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles to accommodate diverse electronic design needs. The 307-014-558-268 specifically addresses applications needing a 14-position interface with high durability and precise alignment capabilities for dual-edge cards.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other EDAC 307 series variants with matching 14-position counts and 3.96 mm pitch. Ensure replacement parts maintain identical contact plating, housing material, and current ratings. Verify mechanical dimensions and mounting hole patterns for direct interchangeability without redesigning the panel or PCB.
