About SIM Card Connectors
SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) is a small smart card (25mm x 15mm x 0.76mm) designed to store subscribers identity, security, authentication and personal information for use in a mobile network terminal, such as a mobile phone, a portable GSM modem, or other access control terminals., e.g. an EPOS (Point of Sale) or a Satellite Receiver terminal. GCT currently provides 6 types of SIM card connectors. All of them are compatible with plug-in SIM cards that conforms to the GSM 11.11 standards.
Dual SIM slots allow plugging of two SIM cards into one connector, saving you PCB space and cutting the cost of PCB placement. This enables applications using two GSM accounts in one device. For example, in the vehicle tracking market the connector allows the option of switching between mobile networks when crossing country borders or when a alternative network offers a price or signal quality advantage. In personal handheld applications the connector permits use of 'work' and 'personal' accounts.
Push Push SIM card connectors have a mechanism for easy card insertion and extraction – no need to open and close cellular phones lid to access the SIM card.
Built in SIM card detection switch.
Shielded metallic case minimizes EMI / EMC.
High quality 15u" gold plated contacts guarantees minimum 5,000 mating / unmating cycles.
Absorption area for automatic pick and place SMT mounting.
Significant on-board space and cost saving – combined SIM and Micro SD card connectors into one connector.
Compact 3.4mm low profile for slim portable designs.
Built-in card detection switch for hot swap, plug and play applications.
Controlled 0.1mm co-planarity after reflow soldering.
Absorption area for automatic pick and place SMT mounting.
Hinged SIM card connectors have two different designs (low and standard profile) which offer:
6 and 8 contacts.
Robust hinge slide lock mechanism holds the SIM card securely even under intense vibration and drop tests.
Guided housing for card alignment, preventing card mis-insertion
Card guide option holds SIM card in cover to ease assembly.
1.80mm low profile option for slim design applications.
Full-flat flipping cover suitable for any design scenarios.
Shielded metallic cover option minimizes EMI / EMC pick up from the antenna.
Absorption area for automatic pick and place SMT mounting
Retainer SIM card connectors have 4 different designs, clip or cover, long or short body.
Card guide and stops in housing (inside the slot) prevents card mis-insertion
Reliable Low-Friction Contact s with 50mOhm Contact Resistance only
High quality 15u" gold plated contacts guarantees minimum 5,000 mating / unmating cycles
Absorption area for automatic pick and place SMT mounting
All GCT sim card connectors are RoHS and DECA BDE compliant.
