337-024-500-812

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 337-024-500-812 is a standard card edge connector designed for dual-sided board insertion. It features 24 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing and a 5.08 mm row pitch. The unit utilizes a copper alloy construction with gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission. Rated for 3 A current, it accommodates PCB thicknesses of 1.57 mm. The connector employs a wire wrap termination method and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual female contacts provide secure mating with double-sided card edges.
• Gold-plated copper alloy terminals offer corrosion resistance and stable conductivity.
• High-profile thermoplastic polyester insulator body supports vertical panel mounting.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system backplanes
• Telecommunications equipment interconnects
• Test and measurement instrument modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm exact pin count, termination style, and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target printed circuit board thickness and panel mounting requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-row connection is required for thicker PCBs up to 1.57 mm. The 3.96 mm pitch suits applications needing robust mechanical retention. Confirm that the wire wrap termination aligns with the assembly process and available tooling constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 337 series of standard card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting configurations. The 337-024 variant specifically addresses needs for moderate density connections in industrial environments requiring high durability.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference the 337-024-500-812 with other EDAC 337 series parts sharing identical 24-position and 3.96 mm pitch specifications. Verify mechanical footprint and electrical ratings match before substituting.
