What is usually done is that a stiffener is added to the area of the connector. The stiffener is usually FR4 (with no copper) glued/epoxied to the flex on the backside of the connector.
However, maybe the application results in minimal bending without stiffeners. What counts as acceptable is rather dependent on the particular parts, the application, and the required reliability and lifetime, so it’s not easy to quantify.

#PCB Design
I am a buyer in a telecom company. Recently, an important order of SMT PCBA is delayed due to insophiscated production of a supplier. I am thinking about replace it and just very puzzled about how did their SMT pad fall off easily when soldering the PCB boards. That slows down the whole process.
We found that edge-mounting a TO-Can package to a PCB will really save a lot on manufacturing. However, it comes with fairly long through-hole pins that are taking up too much space to reach the pads. Any suggestion?
I’m designing a PCB right now and found out I can save a lot of space using the back of THT elements. Is it legit to design like that? Are there any problems that might occur?
