Samtec ERF5 Series Straight Surface PCB Socket, 80-Contact, 2 Row, 0.5 mm Pitch, Solder Termination

Samtec ERF5 ERF5-040-07.0-L-DV-K-TR Straight Surface PCB Socket is a precision-engineered electronic connector designed for high-speed board-to-board applications. Featuring 80 contacts in 2 rows with a fine 0.5 mm pitch, this socket offers excellent signal integrity and electrical performance for advanced electronic systems.

The contact material is beryllium copper alloy plated with gold, providing high conductivity and durability, while the housing is constructed from liquid crystal polymer for enhanced thermal stability. The socket supports current up to 1.6A and voltage of 194V, ensuring reliability in demanding electrical environments.

Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for industrial, telecommunications, and computing hardware. The surface mount straight orientation and 12 mm stacking height allow compatibility with mating ERM5 series headers to achieve various board-to-board height configurations.

These sockets incorporate ruggedized Edge Rate contacts with a milled surface designed to reduce insertion and withdrawal forces, extend life cycle, and maintain consistent high-speed performance up to 28 Gbit/s. This design minimizes crosstalk and broadside coupling, enhancing overall signal quality in high-frequency circuits.

The ERF5 series socket connectors are ideal for applications in electronic assemblies requiring reliable, high-speed interconnections such as telecommunications equipment, data centers, and industrial communications. Combining robust mechanical design with electrical precision, this product supports advanced manufacturing and electronic testing environments.
