The top loading socket allows complete PCB’s to be replaced in the field with out having to dissemble the entire strip of boards. The connector has a two part insulator where by the top of the connector will slide open allowing the plug connector to be pulled out either vertically or at a slight angle. Once the PCB is replaced, the cover is slid back like a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) connector to the closed position. The PCB layout is identical to the standard horizontal socket to maintain family commonality at the PCB level.

Features and Benefits:

• Slide open top; allows field reparability at the light fixture level
• Mates with standard horizontal or cabled plug; no need to change any connectors
• 5 Amp current rating; exceeds general market needs
• Gold plated BeCu spring contacts; reliability for harsh environments

Applications:

• Coplanar PCB mating in SSL products
• LED linear lighting strips
