345-060-500-207

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 345-060-500-207 is a dual female card edge connector designed for through-hole mounting. It features 60 positions arranged in two rows with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch. The contacts are made of copper alloy with a gold plating thickness of 10.0µin (0.25µm). The housing is constructed from thermoplastic polyester and is green in color. It supports card thicknesses between 0.054" and 0.070" (1.37mm - 1.78mm) and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual row configuration with 60 total positions for high-density signal routing
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable electrical conductivity
• Thermoplastic polyester insulation provides structural stability and heat resistance
• Through-hole termination method ensures secure board attachment

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment interfaces demanding reliability
• Agricultural technology hardware exposed to harsh environments
• General-purpose circuit board expansion modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the official EDAC 345/395 Series Ordering Guide to confirm exact flange, termination, and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with target PCB stack-up dimensions and thermal profiles during assembly. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status if required by project regulations before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a 60-position dual-row interface is required with standard 0.100-inch spacing. Consider the thermoplastic polyester housing for applications needing moderate heat resistance up to 105°C. Verify that the through-hole termination style aligns with the manufacturing capabilities of the target printed circuit board assembly process.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 345 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination options. The 345-060-500-207 specifically utilizes a dual female contact type suitable for mating with male card edge fingers. It is distinct from the 341 series which may feature different termination or housing materials.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 345/395 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with identical mechanical footprints. Alternative parts must match the 60-position count, 2.54mm pitch, and dual female configuration. Verify that any replacement maintains the same operating temperature range and insulation material properties.
