802986R

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The On Shore Technology Inc. 802986R is an active dual-edge card edge connector designed for board-to-board or backplane interconnections. It features a female contact configuration with gold plating to ensure reliable signal transmission. The component has a total of 98 positions, arranged as 49 positions per bay or row across two edges. The connector utilizes a standard 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch, which is compatible with common PCB design standards. This specific model is classified as a non-specified card type, indicating it does not adhere to a single rigid industry standard but fits general dual-edge applications.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact interface for secure board insertion
• Gold-plated contacts for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Standard 0.100 inch (2.54mm) spacing between contact points

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• General-purpose electronic module interconnection
• Backplane systems requiring dual-edge connectivity
• Industrial control boards utilizing standard pitch connectors

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific card thickness requirements against the datasheet specifications before procurement, as dual-edge connectors often have tight tolerances for card insertion. Confirm that the target PCB fabrication supports the 0.100-inch pitch layout accurately. Ensure that the application environment does not exceed the thermal limits defined in the official documentation. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components, as availability status may vary.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with a 2.54mm pitch is required for non-standardized card types. It is suitable for designs needing 98 connection points distributed across two edges. Consider the mechanical stability provided by the dual-edge design compared to single-edge alternatives. Evaluate the gold plating benefits if the application involves frequent mating cycles or harsh environmental conditions.
