GCM44DRAS

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The GCM44DRAS is a dual female card edge connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 88 positions arranged in two rows of 44 contacts with a 0.156-inch (3.96mm) spacing. Designed for through-hole, right-angle installation, it utilizes phosphor bronze full bellows contacts with 30.0µin gold plating. The housing is black polyamide (PA9T), rated for -65°C to 125°C, and supports 0.062-inch thick cards.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-sided female contact configuration for board-to-board interconnection
• Full bellows contact design ensures reliable signal transmission
• Right-angle through-hole mounting for compact PCB integration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems
• Telecommunications equipment
• Computer peripheral interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DRAS confirms right-angle orientation and side-mount flange characteristics against project requirements. Ensure compatibility with PA9T insulation material and specified temperature range. Confirm that the 0.156-inch pitch matches the target card edge layout. Validate RoHS3 compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when right-angle mounting is required for dual-edge card applications. The 0.156-inch pitch suits standard industrial card thicknesses. Consider the black PA9T housing for general-purpose environments. Verify that the side-mount flange design aligns with the enclosure constraints compared to top-mount alternatives.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the GCM44 series of female card edge connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series offers various mounting orientations and flange options. The GCM44DRAS specifically denotes the right-angle variant with side-mounting features, distinguishing it from straight or top-mount versions within the same family.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with GCM44DSAH for alternative flange configurations. Compare EMM44DRAS for similar specifications with different housing materials. Verify exact pin count and pitch compatibility before substitution.
