Features Benefits Applications • Large portfolio covering • Large, versatile portfolio offers • Mobile Phones several styles and card sizes • Connectors optimized for reliability (i.e. by spherical contact points increasing hertz stress, pre-loaded contacts and anti retention features in the contacts.) • The SIM connector series offers the best possible design freedom; many products are even scalable in height within the same form factor • Best possible applied cost by fully-automated processing • • • • the best product closest to the actual need Highly reliable connector technology helps customers reduce production line defect rates – ultimately reducing costs for quality control and service Unmatched design freedom creates optimal possibilities for the design engineer to match the device's requirements Fully-automated processing leads to stable quality Global footprint means enhanced support for all regions te.com/products/simcardconnectors • Tablets • Personal computers • Ultrabook • Data cards • Portable GSM modems • Servers TE Connectivity 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 te.com/products/simcardconnectors TE Connectivity SIM Card

4 How do I decide which type of SIM Connector to choose? When should I use a Micro SIM Connector? Answer 1 Answer 4 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. When the device requires the use of a Micro 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 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. 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.
