Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official EDAC documentation to confirm exact plating thickness and material specifications. Ensure compatibility with target PCB panel mounting requirements and verify RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer certificates before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density dual-edge interface is required for vertical mounting applications. The 102-position count supports complex signal routing needs. Confirm that the target card thickness falls within the specified 0.054 to 0.070-inch range to ensure proper mechanical engagement and electrical contact reliability.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the EDAC 395 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by robust construction suitable for demanding environments. The 395-102 variant specifically addresses high-pin-count requirements while maintaining the standard 0.100-inch spacing found across the family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult official EDAC substitution guides for verified alternatives. Generic cross-references may not match the specific housing material or contact plating thickness required for this application.
