357-032-457-108

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. model 357-032-457-108 is a standard card edge connector featuring 64 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) pitch and supports board thicknesses ranging from 1.37 mm to 1.78 mm. The contacts are female, tin-plated copper alloy with semi-hernia termination types, designed for wire wrap end connections. The housing is black thermoplastic polyester, rated for operation between -40°C and +105°C, and complies with RoHS3 standards.

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EDAC documentation to confirm plating type and flange configuration. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness limits. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status through current manufacturer datasheets before final integration into regulated product lines.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-edge connectivity with wire wrap termination is required. The 3.96 mm pitch suits standard industrial board layouts. Tin plating is suitable for general environments where gold is unnecessary. Verify mechanical fit within the designated panel or chassis space constraints.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 357 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and termination styles. The 357-032-457-108 specifically addresses high-density connection needs with its 64-position dual-row layout, fitting within the broader family of vertical mount interconnect solutions.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Generic equivalents may not match the precise 3.96 mm pitch or wire wrap termination requirements. Validate mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings before substitution.
