345-049-558-108

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 345-049-558-108 is a standard card edge connector featuring a single row of 49 positions with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting at a right angle, it utilizes wire wrap termination and gold-plated copper alloy contacts rated for 3 A current. The housing is constructed from thermoplastic polyester in green, accommodating a nominal PCB thickness of 1.57 mm. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and includes flanges for secure installation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Single-row configuration with 49 female contact positions
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Thermoplastic polyester insulation housing with integrated flanges
• Right-angle through-hole mounting with wire wrap termination

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust edge connections
• Telecommunications equipment interface modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to ensure correct plating thickness and material specifications. Confirm that the target application supports the 3 A current rating and 1.57 mm board thickness constraints. Check RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer prior to finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, high-density connection is required for rigid PCBs with standard 1.57 mm thickness. Ensure the design accommodates the right-angle orientation and wire wrap soldering process. Consider the 49-position count relative to available board space and verify that the operating temperature range meets environmental requirements.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 345 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and configurations for single or dual-edge applications. The 345 series is characterized by its use of thermoplastic polyester materials and gold-plated contacts, providing durability for repeated insertion cycles in demanding electronic environments.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC cross-reference documents for direct substitutes. Verify that any alternative maintains the 2.54 mm pitch, 49-position count, and right-angle through-hole form factor to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
