RS PRO 20-Way IDC Connector Female for Cable Mount, 2-Row, 500V DC, 1A Current Rated, Right Angle Orientation 642-4941

RS PRO 642-4941 is a 20-Way IDC Connector Female designed for cable mounting applications in industrial, electronic, and electrical assemblies. This connector offers a 2-row contact configuration with a pitch of 2.54 mm, making it ideal for connecting cables to printed circuit boards (PCBs) where multiple wire connections are required.

The female IDC connector employs an insulation-displacement contact termination method which eliminates the need for stripping or soldering wires. The sharp blades of each contact slice through cable insulation to create a secure electrical connection with the conductor inside. Its phosphor bronze material with gold-over-nickel plating ensures excellent electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion.

The connector housing is constructed from fibreglass reinforced polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) providing durability and mechanical protection in demanding environments. It is rated for a voltage of 500 V DC and current of 1 A, supporting a temperature range from -40°C to 105°C, which suits a variety of industrial and manufacturing applications including testing and diagnostics.

The right angle orientation of the connector allows for efficient space management on PCBs, particularly where vertical space is limited. The unshrouded, female gender design facilitates easy cable connection and disconnection while maintaining strain relief to enhance longevity of the connection.

20 contacts in 2 rows provide compact and efficient electrical connections. IDC termination technique ensures quick wiring installation without cable stripping. High-quality phosphor bronze contact with gold over nickel plating improves durability and conductivity.

Fibreglass reinforced PBT housing offers mechanical robustness. Operates reliably in temperatures from -40°C to +105°C. Right angle mounting suits compact PCB layouts. Rated for 500 V DC voltage and 1 A current applications.

Unshrouded female connector designed for cable mounting with strain relief. Ideal for industrial, manufacturing, and testing applications.

This RS PRO IDC Connector model 642-4941 is made in China and comes with a three-year warranty, providing peace of mind for industrial and professional users. Suitable for integration in electronic components, power connectors, and PCB connection systems.
