16-Position IDC Receptacle for 0.050" Ribbon Cable
The TE Connectivity AMPMODU System 50 2-111196-7 is a 16-position, dual-row receptacle designed for mass-termination to 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch ribbon cable. It uses an IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination, accepting 30-32 AWG ribbon cable — the insulation is displaced by the contact tines during termination, making gas-tight connections without stripping or soldering. The 0.050" pitch matches standard 0.050" pitch ribbon cable and the corresponding AMPMODU System 50 male header series. The gold contact finish at 30.0µin (0.76µm) is a substantial plating thickness — well above the 15µin flash typically used for low-cycle consumer connectors.
Termination and Wire Range — IDC for Ribbon Cable
This receptacle terminates to 30-32 AWG ribbon cable via IDC. The dual-row contact arrangement with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing means the cable is a standard 0.050" pitch ribbon — the conductors align directly with the contact slots. The feed-through feature on the housing allows the cable to pass through the connector body, which is typical for daisy-chain or pass-through wiring in a harness.
