Overview

The 1-1658621-0 is a 50-position rectangular IDC receptacle from TE Connectivity's AMP-LATCH series, designed for 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch ribbon cable terminations. It features gold or gold-palladium plated forked contacts and is designed for free-hanging in-line mounting. The connector includes a polarizing key and feed-through capability for efficient daisy-chaining or end-of-line connections.

Why Choose This Part

The IDC design allows for rapid mass termination of 50 conductors simultaneously without the need for stripping individual wires. Its use of gold or gold-palladium plating on forked contacts ensures high-reliability signal integrity and corrosion resistance in permanent installations.

Applications

Internal System Interconnects
Connecting multiple PCBs or sub-assemblies within a single industrial or commercial enclosure using standard 50-conductor ribbon cables.
Industrial Control Panels
Routing high-density signal lines between PLC modules and interface breakout boards.
Legacy Computing Peripherals
Maintenance and repair of high-pin-count parallel interfaces such as SCSI or specialized bus expansions requiring 50-pin headers.
