What is a Nano SIM Connector?

Mini USB Interface Types

Additional Nano SIM Connector Information

  • Nano-SIM cards measure 12.3mm × 8.8mm × 0.67mm while maintaining the existing SIM card contact arrangements, making Nano SIM connectors the most compact option for designs
  • Nano SIM cards have the lowest profile of all SIM connector sizes, as the 0.67mm thickness of the Nano-SIM card is approximately 15% percent less than Mini/Micro SIM card thickness (0.76mm), enabling compact designs.
  • Compared to Micro SIM cards a smaller area of isolating material remains around the contacts, this prevents short circuits with the socket.
