Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 307-086-458-202 is a standard card edge connector receptacle designed for dual-edge mating configurations. It features 86 positions with a contact spacing of 3.96 mm and a row spacing of 5.08 mm. The component accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 5 A and an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. The contacts are tin-plated copper alloy, housed in a green thermoplastic polyester insulator body. This panel-mount device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female connector design accommodating two-sided card edge PCBs
• Low-profile insulator body constructed from thermoplastic polyester
• Tin-plated copper alloy contacts ensuring reliable signal transmission
• Panel mount installation style providing secure structural attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust board-to-board connections
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing high-density signal interfaces
• Automotive electronics demanding reliable electrical interconnects
• Medical devices necessitating stable performance in controlled environments

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm plating type and orientation. Ensure the target application requires dual-edge mating rather than single-edge configuration. Confirm that the PCB thickness matches the 1.57 mm specification for proper insertion force and retention. Check regional availability as distribution status may vary by location.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count interface is required for dual-sided cards. The 3.96 mm pitch offers a balance between density and manufacturability. Consider the tin plating for cost-effective applications where gold is not strictly necessary. Verify thermal requirements against the specified operating temperature range before finalizing the design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 307 series of standard card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting styles to support diverse electronic assembly needs. The 307 series is characterized by its durable construction and consistent electrical performance across different industrial sectors.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with identical pin counts and spacing but different plating or mounting variations. Cross-reference the 307-086-458-204 for similar specifications with potential differences in plating or orientation.
