GSC26DREI

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The GSC26DREI is a dual-edge female edgeboard connector manufactured by Sullins Connector Solutions. It features 52 positions arranged in two rows of 26 contacts, with a 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pin spacing. The connector utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze full bellows contacts and a black polyamide (PA9T) insulator. Designed for panel mounting, it supports a card thickness of 0.062 inches (1.57 mm) and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to 125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female configuration provides 52 contact positions for robust signal interconnection.
• Full bellows contact design ensures reliable mating cycles and low contact resistance.
• Gold plating on phosphor bronze contacts offers superior corrosion resistance and conductivity.
• Panel mount installation with flange features including top-mounting openings and threaded inserts.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring durable edgeboard connections
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• Telecommunications hardware backplanes
• Embedded computing modules

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code (e.g., -S13, -S734, -S93) when ordering, as these indicate distinct mounting variations or packaging configurations. Confirm that the required card thickness matches the 0.062-inch specification. Ensure compatibility with the 4-40 threaded insert requirements if using the standard flange features. Check RoHS compliance status against current regulatory requirements for your region.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-sided edge connection is required for non-specified cards. The 0.100-inch pitch is suitable for general-purpose digital signals. Consider the panel mount style if space allows for chassis integration. Verify that the operating temperature range meets environmental conditions. Compare with similar models like GSC28DREI if higher pin counts are needed.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This part belongs to the GSC series of edgeboard connectors from Sullins Connector Solutions. The series is characterized by high-reliability contacts and versatile mounting options. The GSC26DREI specifically addresses applications needing 52 contacts in a dual-edge format. It shares design principles with other variants in the family, differing primarily in pin count and mounting suffixes.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include GSC26DREI-S13, GSC26DREI-S734, and GSC26DREI-S93, which share the same electrical specifications but may differ in mounting details or packaging. Cross-reference with GSC28DREI if additional pins are acceptable. Ensure mechanical fitment matches the target PCB or chassis layout before substitution.
