Amphenol FCI (ACS) Power Card Edge Connectors
Amphenol FCi Power Card Edge Connectors distribute AC/DC power in compact systems. These connectors support DC output from embedded power supplies or power distribution between boards. The narrow body maximizes airflow for cooling in 1U rack-mount servers. The Power Card Edge connectors feature 2.54 mm pitch power contacts made of high-conductivity copper alloy, each rated for 7A at 30°C rise. The design includes right-angle, vertical, and straddle-mount configurations. The right-angle versions integrate power and signal contacts or an AC pass-through port. These connectors offer a dielectric withstanding voltage of 1000Vac, a minimum insulation resistance of 5000MΩ, and a durability of 200 cycles. Typically used in servers, telecom, and networking applications.
