3M 26-Way IDC Connector Female for Cable, 2 Row, 1A Current, 2.54mm Pitch, Right Angle, Gold over Nickel Plating 3399-6600

3M 3399-6600 26-Way IDC Connector Female for Cable, 2 Row, is a high-quality right-angle cable mount connector designed to provide reliable and efficient electronic connections in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

This connector is part of the 3M 3000 Series, featuring a 2.54 x 2.54 mm pitch and is compatible with 26 AWG and 28 AWG flat ribbon cables or discrete wires. The IDC type termination allows for quick mass termination without the need for cable stripping or preparation, significantly reducing assembly time and costs.

The contacts are manufactured from beryllium copper, offering superior corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and electrical conductivity compared to conventional materials. These contacts are plated with gold over nickel to enhance longevity and signal integrity.

The connector housing is made from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), ensuring robust mechanical strength and high temperature durability with an operating range from -55°C to 105°C. The 3000 Series connectors incorporate a military dual slot and center bump polarization mechanism promoting accurate mating with corresponding headers.

The positive locking metal ‘J’ clips securely retain the connector cover, which includes a transfer adhesive to maintain precise cable alignment during termination, enhancing production yield. Additionally, pull tabs and keying plugs are available as accessories to minimize cable strain and prevent incorrect mating respectively.

Typical applications include factory and automation systems, test and instrumentation equipment, medical devices, communications and networking hardware, as well as computer peripherals where dependable wire-to-board interconnections are critical.
