Meritec Right Angle PCI Express (PCIe) Connectors - Manual

Right Angle PCIe Connectors with a variety of
stack heights offer a low profile, which saves space
while allowing horizontal (parallel) PCIe card
mounting
Meritec offers the X1, X4, X8 and X16 connectors in their PCI Express (PCIe) Card Edge Connector family
All Meritec PCIe connector footprints are identical to the vertical mount versions for joint compatibility in the
PCB design.
FEATURES and BENEFITS
• Horizontal (parallel) PCI Express card mating
• Meets all PCI Express local bus standards
• Plastic cover protects PCIe connectors from
dust and debris, and supports connector for
hybrid soldering applications requiring
convection/IR heating
• Compliant board locating posts
• Compatible with wave soldering process
• Card mounting heights from 5.84mm to
16.68mm
• Solves space problem in applications where
card edge connector is needed and where low
clearance above PCB prohibits use of vertical
configurations
• Insert molded using liquid crystal polymer for
stability in hybrid board applications involving
surface mount components
• Offers PCB design flexibility
• Designed to mate with .062” thick daughter
card
• RoHS compliant
