GBC65DCAT

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The GBC65DCAT is a dual-edge female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 130 positions arranged in two rows of 65 contacts each, with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) centerline spacing. Designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting, it utilizes phosphor bronze contacts with a 10.0µin gold plating thickness. The housing is constructed from black polyamide (PA9T) nylon 9T, supporting a card thickness of 0.062 inches. Operating temperature ranges from -65°C to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration with hairpin bellows contact type for reliable signal transmission
• Flush mount flange design with top opening and threaded inserts for secure mechanical attachment
• High-temperature resistant polyamide insulation material ensuring stability across wide thermal ranges

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system board interconnections
• Telecommunications equipment backplane connections
• Automotive electronic module interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required contact finish and flange configuration. Confirm that the package quantity aligns with production needs, as components are typically supplied in tubes. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB layout regarding hole patterns and mounting constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density dual-edge interface is required for right-angle board-to-board connections. Consider the 0.062-inch card thickness limitation and the need for flush mounting hardware. Evaluate the operating temperature range against environmental conditions to ensure the polyamide insulation remains within specified performance limits during operation.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the GBC series of card edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various position counts and configurations for different density requirements. The GBC65DCAT specifically addresses applications needing 130 positions with a standard 0.100-inch pitch, providing a robust solution for industrial and commercial electronic assemblies requiring durable edge connections.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Sullins models within the GBC family with equivalent pin counts or compatible flange designs. Verify cross-referencing with distributors for exact mechanical and electrical equivalence. Ensure any replacement maintains the same contact material, plating thickness, and insulation rating to preserve system integrity.
