4-Position IDC Connector for 24 AWG Discrete Wire — SMT Right-Angle
The 3-2106431-4: Both the cable pitch and the board-side pitch are 0.157" (4.00 mm), so the wire spacing matches the PCB footprint directly — no pitch transition. The housing is Natural in colour and includes a Feed Through feature, meaning the wires pass straight through the connector body rather than terminating at a stub end — this simplifies daisy-chain or pass-through wiring in a harness.
IDC Termination for Individual Wires — Not Ribbon Cable
This connector uses IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) termination, but it is specified for Individual Wires — not a flat ribbon cable. The wire gauge is fixed at 24 AWG; the IDC slot geometry is sized for that single diameter, so using a different gauge risks an unreliable termination or damaged contacts.
SMT Line Feed — Tape & Reel Packaging
For a high-volume SMT line, the reel option feeds directly into a pick-and-place machine without a tray changeover. Cut Tape suits prototype runs or low-volume builds where a full reel is unnecessary.
