PCI-e Edge connector Protection
« on: September 06, 2014, 08:07:35 am »
Dear Forum

Recently I purchased a graphic card which had a very sexy PCIe edge connector protector cap.

We also sell cards with edge PCIe edge connectors and would really like to ship with such protection caps fitted but cannot find a supplier for "love nor money".

We have both 98way and 164way edge connectors.

Does anyone know where I can buy these, I think if I rang ASUS they would tell me very politely where to go  ;D.

Many Thanks

Tony

They are likely custom so if you want some, you will have to take your mechanical drawings to a plastic molding company and have them custom-made out of ESD-safe/dissipative plastic.

I guess you looked at Keystone Electronics? Take a close look at the plastic thingy, there might be a logo?

Wasn't there a company called Global that made all kinds of plastic doohickeys?
