Keystone Electronics has introduced a new series of SMT PCB Connectors that are designed to allow signals or power to pass across PC Boards. Offering a quick and easy set-up procedure, these space-saving SMT connectors feature a horizontal orientation - making them uniquely suitable as parallel board-to-board or board-to-component alternatives for power or signal transferring.  These new connectors also provide ideal low profile circuit linkage and minimal footprint for high-density, high current PCB packages on power and aluminum backplanes. All PCB soldering applications, including reflow, may be utilized.

Manufactured from phosphor bronze with gold plate, these connectors are available in a variety of styles:  Male (pin), Cat. # 6100 (bulk) or Cat. # 6100TR (tape and reel) and Female (socket) Cat. # 6102 (bulk) or Cat. # 6102TR (tape and reel).  The female sockets are equipped with side guides for additional reinforcement to minimize PCB movement when installed.

All tape and reel parts are packaged per ANSI/EIA-481 standards for compatibility with most vacuum and mechanical pick-and-place assembly systems.  Delivery is from stock for all Keystone connectors via the company’s global distribution network and online partners.
