The TE Connectivity 2-111196-5 is a 10-position receptacle from the AMPMODU System 50 series, designed for mass-termination to 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch ribbon cable. It uses insulation displacement contacts (IDC) to terminate 30-32 AWG ribbon cable without stripping or soldering — a clean, repeatable termination for internal harnesses and board-to-peripheral links.
Pitch and cable compatibility
The 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch is the defining fit parameter — it matches the standard 0.050" pitch ribbon cable that carries 10 conductors on 1.27mm centres. The 30-32 AWG wire gauge range covers the most common ribbon cable sizes for this pitch class; 30 AWG is typical for general-purpose signal cabling, while 32 AWG is used where space is tighter.
Contact plating and reliability
Free-hanging (in-line) mounting with a latch lock — the receptacle is designed to mate with a board-mounted header and lock in place. There are no board locks or mounting ears; the connector relies on the latch and the friction of the IDC termination to stay put on the cable. The feed-through feature (open-ended housing) allows daisy-chaining or pass-through of the ribbon cable to another connector downstream.
