SIM Card Connector Series
Variety of SIM Card Connectors Portfolio
Push-Pull Type
· Card guidance and card stops provides fixation of the SIM card in X, Y and Z direction
· Card is typically located inside the device shell. Consumer must open the device shell to extract the card, and must insert and eject card manually
· Full single clip, provides shielding, and prevents card bending. This ensures a stable connection with all card types
· Components underneath the SIM card are possible (optional)
Block Type
· Basic SIM Connector without enhanced features in combination with an efficient manufacturing process leads to an extremely cost-effective component
· Anti-lifting contact prevents the contact from being accidentally lifted. Reduces the risk of damaged contacts
· Five (5) directional mating allows for card insertion from five directions: front, back, left, right and top. It thereby allows for maximum design freedom
Push-Push Type
· Push to insert, push to eject mechanism provides enhanced card handling for the end user
· Push-Push type connectors are typically used under the battery cover or behind a door at the device exterior
· The card detection switch senses card removal · The connector prevents for reversed card insertion, eliminating damage done by
wrong card insertion
Tray Type
· Tray type SIM connectors are typically used on the exterior of a device. The tray forms a unity with the device covers
· Tray can be fully separated from the body, allowing for easy card handling by the end user
· Fully-shielded, preventing EMI or other disturbances · The connector prevents reversed card insertion, eliminating damage done by
wrong card insertion · The card detection switch senses card removal

Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1 How do I decide which type of SIM Connector to choose? Answer 1 The major difference in choosing between SIM connectors depends on the design of the customer device. Push-Push or Tray type SIM connectors allow users to extract the SIM card from the external portion of the device. Push-Pull or Block type connectors require users to open the back shell of the device and manually pull out the SIM card.
Question 2 What is the purpose of an 8-position SIM connector? Answer 2 The extra two positions support an additional function like e-Pay.
Question 3 What is the benefit of dual-slanted contact performance? Answer 3 The dual-slanted design prevents contact jam issues and creates a stronger mating performance, as demonstrated during the drop test.
Question 4 When should I use a Micro SIM Connector? Answer 4 When the device requires the use of a Micro SIM card.
Question 5 What’s the scalable Height? Answer 5 The scalable height is found when the SIM card connector is scalable by a different P/N, but the connector footprint stays the same. The benefit is enabling the customer to swap the product easily when a design change occurs, thereby reducing the leadtime of TTM (Time To Market), TTV (Time To Value) and design cost.
