Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific plating finish against official datasheets, as distributor listings may vary between tin and gold options for this series. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required surface mount orientation and terminal style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness and row spacing specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a 32-position dual-edge female connector is required for vertical or panel-mounted installations. The 3.96 mm pitch accommodates standard board layouts while the 1.57 mm thickness tolerance ensures secure mating. Consider the low-profile housing for space-constrained designs requiring reliable solder termination.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 307 Series, which provides standard card edge connectors with 3.96 mm contact spacing. The series supports various position counts and mounting styles, including headers and receptacles. These connectors are engineered for robust performance in industrial and commercial electronic assemblies requiring standardized interface dimensions.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the 307 Series include models such as 307-032-420-258, which shares identical mechanical dimensions but features gold plating instead of tin. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 32-position count, 3.96 mm pitch, and 1.57 mm board thickness acceptance.
