845-017-558-408

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 845-017-558-408 is a single-row card edge connector from the 845 High Temp series, designed for high-temperature environments. It features 17 positions with a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) contact spacing and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm). The connector utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts and a black insulator body made of Diallyl Phthalate (DAP). It supports wire wrap termination and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.
