15-Position D-Sub Plug for IDC Ribbon Cable
It accepts 26-28 AWG stranded or solid conductors, making it a direct-fit choice for mass-termination harnesses where a solder-cup or crimp D-sub would add assembly time.
The IDC termination style means the ribbon cable is pressed onto bifurcated contacts that pierce the insulation — no stripping, no crimping, no soldering. The 26-28 AWG range covers standard 0.050-inch pitch ribbon cable used in parallel data and signal buses. The free-hanging (in-line) mounting keeps the connector off the PCB, which is typical for a cable-to-panel or cable-to-cable D-sub run. The housing/shell flange carries 4-40 threaded inserts for the mating jack-screws, so the pair stays locked under vibration.
