6-pin SMT Clamshell Type SIM Card Connector SUS Shell Copper Alloy Contacts High-Temperature Resistant

6-pin SMT Clamshell Type SIM Card Connector SUS Shell Copper Alloy Contacts High-Temperature Resistant

Product Description

The 6-Pin SMT Clamshell Type SIM Card Connector is a compact PCB-mount SIM card socket designed for electronic devices that require a secure SIM card interface within a limited PCB area.

Its clamshell/hinged structure allows the SIM card to be positioned and retained inside the connector, while the SUS stainless steel shell and copper alloy contacts provide a mechanically reinforced and electrically conductive interface.

The connector is suitable for mobile communication equipment, cellular IoT devices, GPS trackers, POS terminals, industrial communication equipment, automotive electronics, and other embedded wireless products.

For production applications, the final electrical ratings, dimensions, plating and temperature specifications should be confirmed against the supplied drawing or datasheet.

Feature

1. Simple Card Installation

The hinged/clamshell structure provides a straightforward card-loading method. The SIM card is positioned in the holder and secured by the cover.

This is useful where engineers need a connector that allows direct card access without a separate external card tray mechanism.

2. Compact 2.8 mm Profile

The 2.8 mm height is an important selection parameter when comparing SIM connector options.

It can be considered for:

Compact communication devices;
Embedded wireless modules;
Industrial control equipment;
IoT gateways;
GPS tracking products.

3. 6-Pin Electrical Interface

A 6-pin configuration corresponds to the standard electrical contact arrangement commonly used for SIM interfaces.

The connector can therefore be evaluated for products where a 6-contact SIM interface is required.

4. Suitable for OEM/ODM Sourcing

For volume buyers, the key value is not simply the connector itself but whether the supplier can support the complete sourcing process.

Typical procurement requirements include:

Drawing confirmation;
Sample approval;
PCB compatibility checking;
Material confirmation;
Plating specification;
Packaging requirements;
OEM/ODM customization;
Mass-production support.

Applications

4G / 5G Communication Equipment

The connector can be integrated into communication products requiring a physical SIM interface, including:

• 4G LTE routers;
• 5G CPE devices;
• Wireless gateways;
• Cellular communication terminals;
• Industrial wireless modules.

Industrial IoT

SIM interfaces are commonly used in connected industrial equipment where cellular communication provides remote connectivity.

Potential applications include:

• Industrial IoT gateways;
• Remote monitoring devices;
• Smart meters;
• Industrial controllers;
• Asset tracking terminals.

GPS & Tracking Devices

Compact SIM card connectors are suitable for cellular-enabled tracking equipment such as:

• Vehicle GPS trackers;
• Fleet management terminals;
• Personal tracking devices;
• Logistics tracking equipment.

POS & Payment Terminals

SIM-enabled POS terminals may require a compact card connector for cellular communication.

The 6-pin clamshell configuration can be evaluated where the product architecture requires a serviceable SIM interface and PCB-mounted connector.

Smart Devices & Embedded Electronics

Other potential applications include:

• Smart home gateways;
• Security devices;
• Smart terminals;
• Wireless data collectors;
• Embedded communication equipment.
