BOARD TO BOARD CONNECTORS
RIB-CAGE
™
1.27mm (0.050 in.) Pitch Board-to-Board Connector System for Extreme Applications
DESCRIPTION
Rib-Cage
™
connectors provide optimal precision and
reliability at a competitive commercial cost.
Rib-Cage
™
connectors meet high performance standards
for use in applications with shock and vibration.
The versatile Rib-Cage
™
system includes dual-row,
pin-and-socket connectors for right-angle and
mezzanine connections between printed circuit
boards (PCB) or flexible printed circuits (FPC).
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Exclusive Rib-Cage
™
multi-point, gold plated
receptacle contacts provide optimal reliability
in high vibration and shock-prone applications
• MIL-STD-202 Method 204
• IEC 60512 Test 6d
High density 1.27mm (.050 in.) x 1.27mm (.050
in.) double row contact grid occupies only 20% of
the volume of comparable .100 in. pitch systems
Multiple stack height options offer flexibility for
mezzanine connection designs
Polarization prevents mis-mating
Multiple PCB positioning and PCB attachment
options suit customer assembly requirements
Available sizes: 10 through 100 total positions
Lead-free, RoHS compatible plating satisfies
environmental regulations
TARGET MARKETS / APPLICATIONS
Handheld test and diagnostic equipment
Outdoor test and measurement devices
Military communications equipment
Security systems and Access Control
Point-of-sale terminals
Electronic sub-assemblies used in conjunction
with fans, motors and mechanical devices
