”Molded-On” is defined as the integration of cable and contacts into a one-piece inseparable assembly by means of
injection molding. This unique process provides functional and economic advantages over the standard, press-on IDC connectors.
Features & Benefits
“Molded-On” requires no additional strain-relief features,
and because the process forms a one piece, inseparable
IDC connector, there are no loose pieces to come apart
or scrap. Assemblies are 100% tested and are ready to
be installed when shipped.
DRB
•Space-saving alternative to larger, diagonal PCB-hole patterns and bulkier
header-socket connector combinations.
•Solders directly into standard .100 x .100 header-hole patterns.
•Vital one-piece construction eliminates separation problems.
•Eight sizes available: 10, 14, 16, 20, 26, 34, 40 and 50 contacts. Tin-overnickel plating standard. Gold plating available.
•Contact length accommodates boards up to .125 in. (3.18mm)
•Enhances design flexibility-DRB .100 x .100 footprint allows replacing header/
socket with DRB when plug/unplug requirement is unnecessary (and vice
versa) without re-designing PC board for DIP or PCB hole patterns.
•Reduces hole-drilling production costs - allows standardizing on .100 x
.100 hole patterns throughout.
•Pin-retention contacts available.
•Ideal for high-density applications – compact DRB dimensions and footprint allow
optimization of valuable PC board real estate and peripheral-packaging space.
•Current rating: 1 ampere (DC). Dielectric withstanding voltage; 1,000 volts
(sea level).

•Low-profile and High-profile styles accommodate typical-header-latch sizes.
•Three industry-standard polarity-keying systems.
•Wire accommodation: 28-AWG stranded and 26-AWG stranded.
•Current rating: 1 ampere (D.C.)
•Dielectric withstanding voltage: 1,000 volts (sea level).
•Selective-gold or nickel-silver contacts.
•Slotted ends clear adjacent posts when installed on continuous-row headers.
•UL Recognized under the component program of UL, Inc., (File number and
yellow card available). UL Rated 94V-0, black polyester thermoplastic.
SRS
•Single row contacts on .100 in. (2.54mm) centers.
•Mates with single rows of .025 in. (0,64mm) square or round posts spaced
on standard .100 in. (2,54mm) centers.
•Selective-gold or nickel-silver-alloy contacts.
•Fourteen sizes available 3–12, 14, 16, 20 and 24 contacts.
•Some may be daisy chained onto .050 in. (1.27mm) pitch cable as well as
combined with other IDC connector styles on .050 pitch cable.
•Current rating: 1 amp (D.C.)
•Dielectric withstanding voltage: 1,000 volts (sea level).
•UL recognized under the component program of UL, Inc. UL rated 94V-0,
black polyester thermoplastic.
SRB
•Single row contacts on .100 in. (2.54mm) centers.
•Solders into single rows of PC board holes spaced on standard .100 in.
(2,54mm) centers. Adjacent ends clear when installed end to end. Cables
may be placed in continuous row hole patterns without loss of holes
between connectors.
•Contact length accommodates up to .125 in. (3,18mm) PC boards.
•Tin-plated nickel-silver-alloy contacts standard. Gold available.
•Four sizes available: 8, 10, 14 and 20 contacts.
•Pin-retention contacts available.
•Available only as end terminations, not as daisy chains.
•Current rating: 1 amp (D.C.)
•Dielectric withstanding voltage: 1,000 volts (sea level).
•UL Recognized under the component program of UL, Inc. UL Rated 94V0, black polyester thermoplastic
DIP
•Mates with standard IC sockets - directly interchangeable replacements
for industry standard IDC DIP cable assemblies.
•Eight sizes available 8, 14, 16, 20, 24, 28, 40 and 50 contacts.
•Tin-over-nickel plating standard. Gold plating available. Vital one piece
construction eliminates separation problems.
•Pin retention contacts available.
•Built-in solder standoffs facilitates wave soldering.
•Current rating: 1 ampere (DC). Dielectric withstanding voltage: 1,000 volts
(sea level).
•UL Recognized under the component program of UL, Inc. UL Rated 94V-0
black polyester thermoplastic.

Black Silver® The “Molded-On” Concept
Black Silver, IDC & Molded-On Shown

Entire gas-tight contact
seal area is enclosed in
PVC insulation material.
Probe access holes at
each IDC contact fork.
Cable end concealed
inside the connector
plastic is standard feature.
Mating .025in (0.64mm)
round or square-contact
posts spaced on .100in
(2.54mm) centers.
During the molding process, the
cable’s PVC insulation is thermally
fused to the surrounding connector
body plastic. This creates the
ultimate, permanent strain relief.
Industry standard .050in
(1.27mm) or .100in
(2.54mm) pitch round
wire flat-ribbon cable.
Encasement of the cable
and opposing shoulders
of the contact shank in
the thermoplastic body
anchors both against
relative movement.
Individual fork cavities are
dielectrically separated by
thermoplastic cell wall.
Recesses accommodate
adjacent posts in
continuous rows.
Integral Molding
Flat ribbon cable conductors are IDC mass terminated
to preformed contacts and the entire terminated cable
end is enclosed in a mold configured as a connector.
Hot molten polyester thermoplastic is then injected
under intense pressure. The pressurized molten plastic
penetrates and fills all the mold cavity spaces while
simultaneously engulfing the shouldered portion of the
contacts, the cable cut-off end, and the PVC-insulated
lead-in portion of the cable itself. The PVC insulation is
thermally fused to the body.
The finished part, now an integral single-end
assembly, cools immediately and is ejected from the
mold. For double-ended assembly, the opposite cable
end also is IDC mass terminated to the contacts and
molded. One-piece daisy-chain jumpers are produced
by using through-cable molds that permit any connector
body styles to be molded around IDC-mass-terminated
contacts anywhere on the cable. Special-configuration
one-piece jumpers incorporating any number of
connectors – with the same or different body style and
sizes – are easily produced to Customer specifications
with our unique “Molded-On” process. In keeping with
the “systems approach”, all cable is industry-standard
