395-046-558-458

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 395-046-558-458 is a single-row card edge connector designed for vertical through-hole mounting. It features 46 positions with a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) contact pitch. The connector utilizes female, cantilever contacts with gold plating and accepts non-specified single-edge cards ranging from 0.054 to 0.070 inches in thickness. Constructed with black thermoplastic polyester insulation, it includes flanges with top-mounting openings and M3 threaded inserts for secure installation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Single-edge female connection utilizing cantilever contact technology for reliable signal transmission
• Vertical orientation with through-hole termination for stable board integration
• Gold-plated contacts ensure corrosion resistance and low contact impedance
• Integrated flange design with M3 threaded inserts facilitates precise panel mounting

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interface modules
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Medical device internal circuit interconnects
• Consumer electronics expansion slots

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact flange configurations and material specifications. Ensure compatibility with target PCB stack-up and card thickness requirements before ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by project regulations. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to validate current availability and lead times.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, vertical card edge interface is required with robust mechanical retention. The 46-position count suits moderate-density applications. Verify that the 0.100-inch pitch aligns with the mating card's trace layout. Consider the operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C for environmental suitability. Ensure the M3 mounting hardware fits the enclosure design constraints.
