50-Position IDC Receptacle for 28 AWG Ribbon Cable
The TE Connectivity AMP-Latch 2-111626-3 is a 50-position, 2-row IDC receptacle designed for mass-termination to 28 AWG ribbon cable. It uses a 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch — the standard spacing for 28 AWG flat cable — so the cable's conductors align directly with the insulation-displacement contacts, no wire stripping or crimping per position. The black housing has a feed-through feature, meaning the ribbon cable passes straight through the connector body, which simplifies daisy-chaining or running the cable to another termination point without a break.
Where It Fits: AMP-Latch Series and Mating Half
This receptacle mates with the matching AMP-Latch male pin header — same 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch, same 50-position count, 2-row layout. The AMP-Latch series is TE's workhorse for parallel data and control interconnects inside industrial controllers, telecom gear, and test equipment. The 50-position density puts it in the mid-to-high range of the series; the 30.0 µ" gold contacts give it the cycle life for equipment that gets reconfigured or serviced in the field, not just a one-time build.
Cross-Shop: 1-226733-4 vs This Part
Same 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch, same IDC termination for 28 AWG ribbon cable, same gold female socket contacts, same free-hanging mount. The only decision-relevant difference is the position count: 50 positions on the 2-111626-3 vs 17 on the 1-226733-4. Match the circuit count on your BOM — if you need 50 conductors, this is the one; if the design calls for 17, the 1-226733-4 is the correct pick. The 1-226733-4 also adds a detent lock fastening type, which the 2-111626-3 does not list — a factor if your application needs a positive secondary retention feature on the mating interface.
