3M 16-Way IDC Connector Female Cable Mount Right Angle 1kV 1A Gold over Nickel 3452-6616

3M 3452-6616 is a 16-Way IDC Connector Female designed for cable mounting applications, featuring a 2-row configuration with 2.54mm pitch. This connector is engineered to provide reliable electrical connections including use in industrial, electronic, communication, and instrumentation equipment where secure and efficient ribbon cable connections are critical.

The connector supports a continuous current of 1 amp and a voltage rating of 1kV, suitable for medium-level electronic applications. It employs copper alloy contacts plated with gold over nickel to deliver excellent corrosion resistance and enhanced electrical conductivity. The polybutylene terephthalate housing provides high mechanical strength and durability.

Operating over a wide temperature range from -55°C to 105°C, this connector is designed to withstand harsh environments and demanding applications. It features IDC contacts that eliminate the need for cable stripping, enabling fast and reliable mass termination of ribbon cables with 26 AWG and 28 AWG solid or stranded conductors. The cable mounting with right angle orientation enhances board space efficiency.

Additional design features include a plastic strain relief mechanism that protects cables and contacts from damage during unplugging, and positive locking metal 'J' clips to securely retain the connector cover. The connector housing includes dual slot military polarization for accurate mating to headers. Its design meets MIL and IEC standardization as part of the trusted 3M 3000 Series IDC connectors.

These connectors are ideal for applications in factory automation, test and instrumentation equipment, communication systems, medical devices, and computer peripherals where dependable wire-to-board connections are essential.
