AMPHENOL T812 Series IDC Socket with Strain Relief, 2.54mm, 34 Way

The AMPHENOL T812 Series IDC Socket provides a robust and reliable connection solution for a wide range of industrial applications. This 34-way, 2-row IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) socket features a durable construction designed for consistent performance and secure terminations.

Key to its reliability are the flash gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts, offering excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. The connector utilises a precise 2.54mm pitch spacing and employs an IDC/IDT (Insulation Displacement Termination) method for efficient, gas-tight connections with ribbon or flat cable, eliminating the need for stripping individual wires.

Enhanced Durability and Safety

The socket body is moulded from high-performance PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) insulator, which is glass-reinforced and carries a UL 94V-0 flammability rating. This ensures the connector is resistant to high temperatures, chemicals, and combustion. An integrated strain relief feature protects the terminations from mechanical stress and vibration, significantly increasing cable life and preventing wire pull-out.

Technical Performance

This connector is engineered for demanding electrical environments, offering a maximum contact resistance of 20mΩ at 1A DC and a high minimum insulation resistance of 1000MΩ at 500V DC. Each contact is rated for a 3A current, with an overall RMS voltage rating of 250V AC at 60Hz, making it suitable for control systems, data communication, and power distribution within equipment.

Its cable-mount design allows for easy in-line integration into wiring harnesses. The combination of premium materials, precise engineering, and protective features makes the AMphenol T812 Series socket an essential component for creating durable and long-lasting electrical interconnects in professional and industrial settings.
