DB Connectors

  • They do have 20 ga wire connectors - [1] - but most are 28 ga. Need to find 22 ga source.
  • Tech drawing - [2]
  • Solderless - screw terminals - [3]
  • With ribbon - [4]
  • Sockets for ribbon cable - [5]
  • Attaching ribbon - squeeze to pierce -

  • Ribbon cable current rating - [6]

JST Connectors

IDC Connectors

  • =Insulation Displacement Connectors

  • Example connector for IDC cable - Male - [7], Female - [8]
  • Uxcell - female 10 pin - [9]
  • Male 2x8 - [10]. For 28 ga ribbon - [11]
  • Different pitches used - [12]

Block Telephone Connectors

  • See good explanation - [13]

Ribbon Cable

  • 22 ga ribbon cable does exist - [14]. Sourcing - [15]. Spec sheet - [16]
  • 24 ga ribbon cable - [17] - can we find DB connectors or idc connectors
  • Ribbon cable is separable:

Cat 5

Does exist for Power over Ethernet

MTA Connectors

  • It appears that female connectors only are available, male are rare. For Male, headers are used. Limits use for making plugs. Need male plugs.
    • Found here - male IDC MTA plugs - [19]
  • Crimp vs IDC connectors
    • 101 seconds to crimp with tool per pin, including wire stripping and inserting into housing (10 minutes for a 6 plug)
    • Second video says you can only use solid wire for this

    • This one says use stranded wire - [20]

Multiple wires at the same time - uses wires spaced out on a ribbon

  • Another MTA - An IDC type - [21]
