357-024-559-102

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 357-024-559-102 is a standard single-row card edge connector featuring 24 positions with a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing and 5.08 mm row spacing. Designed for .062 inch nominal thickness printed circuit boards, it utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts housed in a thermoplastic polyester insulator. The component supports vertical panel mounting via flanges with .128 inch diameter holes and offers a low-profile body configuration suitable for dense electronic assemblies.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Single-row architecture with gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Compatible with standard .062 inch nominal thickness PCBs
• Vertical panel mount design incorporating integrated flanges for secure installation

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interface connections
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Consumer electronics module interconnects

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm physical attributes such as flange presence and termination style. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm. Confirm that the single-row configuration meets the pin count requirements of the design. Check RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Validate mounting hole dimensions against the chassis design.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this connector when a single-row layout with 3.96 mm pitch is required for vertical panel integration. It is appropriate for applications needing robust mechanical retention through flanged mounting. Consider the thermoplastic polyester housing for environmental stability. Ensure the 24-position capacity aligns with the signal or power distribution needs of the target board.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 357 series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series provides various position counts and mounting options to support diverse electronic packaging requirements. The 357 series is characterized by its consistent 3.96 mm spacing and durable construction materials.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include part numbers with identical 24-position counts and single-row configurations, such as 357-024-559-101, provided the termination and flange specifications match the design requirements.
