AVX's new PCI ExpressCard kit designed for strength and durability

PCMCIA card kits that support both the ExpressCard/34 (34mm wide) and ExpressCard/54 (54mm wide) form factors, have been developed by the AVX Corporation, the leading manufacturer of advanced passive components and connectors.

PCI Express Card kits support 34mm and 54mm formats

Part of AVX's PCI ExpressCard product family, the 9186 and 9187 series PCI ExpressCard kits feature a locking mechanism that snaps into the kit frame, providing optimum strength and rigidity to the connector kit. They are smaller and simpler to use than current products, and have been designed using Elco's unique interlocking snap mechanism to ensure the kit is strong and robust. This also means that these products can be assembled using very simple bench-press tooling, so there is no need to invest in expensive processes such as ultrasonic welding or heat adhesion.

The kits can also include built-in SIM card, making them suitable for GPRS and WLAN related applications as well as Bluetooth, mobile communication and industrial PC applications. The complete kit combines the 26-way, RoHS-compliant connectors on one end, two interlocking covers, and customized plastic extensions to accommodate components requiring additional board space as well as LEDs or other signal confirmation components.
