Connector Overview

The Albacom series of NAFI daughter board connectors incorporates the blade contact half of the fork and blade interconnection system. Bodies fabricated from lightweight extruded aluminium, provide a cost-effective and versatile combination of design.

Manufactured in a range of lengths on a 0.100"(2.54mm) x 0.100"(2.54mm) grid configuration, Albacom connectors meet the requirements of applications while maintaining the design tolerances necessary for optimum mating performance.

The aluminium body also acts as a shield against electromagnetic interface (EMI). Special "First make/Last break" contact arrangements reduce the mating forces. Various keying methods are available to ensure effective polarisation of the daughter card.

To facilitate daughter card testing, Albacom offers a series of fork card extenders. These card extenders , employ the same design technology as the blade connectors and are designed to allow easy access to daughter cards undergoing in-circuit test.

Albacom connectors are compatible with most fork systems; however, highest mating performance and interconnection reliability is obtained in conjunction with Albacom printed circuit backplanes.

Albacom connectors, ideally suited for all military and aerospace fork and blade applications, meet the appropriate standards (MIL-C-28754).
