0.60mm pitch edge-card interconnect for high-density board-to-board
The TE 2379397-6 is a 74-position female edge card connector from the Mini Cool Edge 0.60mm series, designed for surface-mount termination to a host PCB. It accepts a standard 0.062" (1.57mm) thick daughter card, with dual-row readout giving 37 positions per row at the tight 0.60mm pitch. This connector is built for internal board-to-board or cable-to-board interconnects where signal density is the priority — think server backplanes, switch fabrics, or high-channel-count mezzanine stacks. The SMT termination and board guide features simplify pick-and-place assembly, and the pick-and-place cap keeps the vacuum nozzle from damaging the contacts during the line.
74 positions, dual-row readout, 1.57mm card thickness
The 2379397-6 sits in the Mini Cool Edge 0.60mm family as a 74-position, dual-row variant. The critical fit parameter is the card thickness: the connector is specified for 0.062" (1.57mm) PCBs. If your daughter card is thinner or thicker, the contact wipe and retention force change — the terminal beam is designed for that specific stack-up. The 0.60mm pitch means the connector footprint on the host board is dense; verify your board house can route between the pads before committing the BOM line.
