AMPHENOL 10-Way IDC Socket with Strain Relief, 2.54mm Pitch

The AMPHENOL 10-Way IDC Socket with Strain Relief is a compact and robust ribbon cable connector designed for reliable and secure electrical connections. Featuring a 2.54mm pitch, this 10-way socket is engineered for fast, tool-press assembly, allowing for efficient and consistent termination without the need for soldering. The integral strain relief clamp is a key feature, protecting the delicate insulation displacement contacts (IDC) from the stress of cable flex, vibration, and accidental pulls, thereby significantly enhancing the long-term reliability of the connection.

Constructed from high-quality materials, this connector ensures a gas-tight connection between the socket pins and the ribbon cable conductors. The tool-press method guarantees that each wire is correctly seated and secured, providing excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical stability. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where space is at a premium and dependable performance is critical.

Key Features

• Fast Assembly: Enables quick and reliable mass termination of ribbon cables using a standard tool-press.
• Integrated Strain Relief: The built-in clamp secures the cable, preventing damage to the terminations from movement or tension.
• Compact Design: With a pitch of 2.54mm, it is perfectly suited for high-density PCB and internal wiring applications.
• Durability: The robust housing and secure IDC contacts ensure a long service life even in demanding environments.

This socket is a fundamental component for creating organised and professional cable harnesses within electronic enclosures, test equipment, and data systems.
