IDC connectors are either bonded to ribbon cable or to round flat cable. A requirement arose for a more rational simplified processing technique for normal round cables in communication and information electronics. In co-operation with a leading user in the communications industry, Erni developed a rationalised system using simple processing tools.
The new modular cable connector system has insulation displacement contacts that are designed for both solid wire sizes AWG 24 and AWG 26, 0,4 mm or 0,5 mm diameter, and 7-core stranded wire to VDE 0881. The socket connectors are available in 6, 8, 14, 21, 30, 45, 64 and 96 pole versions. Split shell cable enclosures are available for all eight variants.
To assemble the socket, the cable guide is removed, individual wires are then threaded into the cable guide. The prepared wire guide and IDC connector is then fitted into the crimp tool, the crimp tool fully closed and the individual wires simultaneously crimped and cut off. The individual cable enclosures can be locked to suitable guide frames with interlocking hooks.
Major benefits of the modular cable connector systems are:
* Rationalised insulation displacement connection of round cables.
* Dual insulation displacement contact.
* Suitable for solid and stranded wires.
* Eight different pole variants allow modular design.
* Compact, minimum height cable enclosures for all pole variants.
* Interlocking and polarisation/coding possible.
* Transfer from the front and rear of the subtract of model M connectors with special contacts possible.
* The crimping tool crimps and simultaneously cuts off the protruding wires.
