GCB45DHAS

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The GCB45DHAS is a dual-edge female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 90 positions arranged in two rows of 45 contacts with a 0.050 inch (1.27mm) pitch. Designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting, it utilizes staggered solder termination and hairpin bellows contact types made from phosphor bronze with 30.0µin gold plating. The connector accommodates a 0.062 inch board thickness and includes side-mounting flanges with 0.125 inch diameter unthreaded holes. Insulation is provided by PA9T nylon, supporting an operating temperature range of -65°C to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration with hairpin bellows contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Right-angle through-hole mounting with staggered solder termination for secure PCB attachment
• Side-mounting flange design featuring unthreaded holes for panel integration
• High-temperature resistant PA9T nylon insulation suitable for demanding environments

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control system interconnections
• Telecommunications equipment backplanes
• Test and measurement instrument interfaces
• Automotive electronic module connections

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DHAS against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm right-angle orientation and side-flange specifications. Ensure compatibility with 0.062 inch board thickness and verify RoHS3 compliance requirements for the target assembly. Cross-reference the 90-position count and 0.050 inch pitch with the receiving card edge layout to prevent mating errors during integration.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when right-angle through-hole mounting is required for dual-edge applications. The side-mounting flange design facilitates secure panel installation without top-opening hardware constraints. Phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating offer durability for repeated insertions. Verify that the PA9T insulation material meets thermal requirements for the intended operating environment up to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the GCB45 series of high-density card edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various mounting styles and termination options. The GCB45DHAS variant specifically provides right-angle through-hole mounting with side flanges, distinguishing it from straight or cross-mount alternatives within the same family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include GCB45DHBS and GCB45DHBD, which share identical electrical and mechanical parameters but differ in flange characteristics. GCB45DHBS features side-mounting openings similar to the DHAS, while GCB45DHBD offers flush mounting with top openings. Verify flange hole alignment and thread requirements before substitution.
