Description
An 18-pin curved male socket connector used on ASIC miner hashboards. This is the data/signal connector that links the hashboard to the control board via ribbon cable. A common point of failure on Bitmain Antminer hashboards — if your miner is reporting a missing or faulty hashboard, a damaged 18-pin connector is one of the first things to inspect. This is the exact replacement part for PCB-mount repair.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Pin Count | 18-pin |
| Style | Curved / right-angle (PCB mount) |
| Gender | Male socket |
| Application | Hashboard signal/data connector |
| Compatible Miners | Bitmain Antminer series (S9, S17, T17, S19, etc.) |
Key Features
- Direct replacement for damaged or corroded hashboard signal connectors
- Curved/right-angle design matches the factory PCB footprint — no board modification needed
- Critical repair part — resolves “hashboard not found” errors caused by connector failure
- Quality pins ensure reliable data transmission between hashboard and control board
Compatibility
Fits Bitmain Antminer hashboards that use the 18-pin curved signal connector, including S9, S17, T17, and S19 series. Verify your specific hashboard’s connector type before ordering — some models use straight rather than curved connectors.
How do I know if my 18-pin connector is faulty?
Symptoms include: a hashboard not being detected by the control board, intermittent hashboard dropouts, or abnormal chip counts. Visually inspect the connector for bent pins, corrosion, burn marks, or loose solder joints.
Do I need soldering skills to replace this?
Yes. Replacing an 18-pin connector requires desoldering the old component and soldering the new one onto the hashboard PCB. This is intermediate-level repair work. If you are not comfortable with PCB soldering, D-Central offers professional ASIC repair services.
