About this manual

The JNPS-0846 is an IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) designed for 1.27 mm pitch flat cables. It features two rows of U‑elements on the top side and two rows of contact tails on the bottom, enabling electrical connection between cable, PCB, or compatible IC sockets.

The handbook details electrical ratings (10 A, 250 V AC / 300 V DC), temperature range (‑55 °C to 105 °C), plating options (PR, SC, S), contact quantities (14‑40 pins), storage conditions, and recommended mounting practices such as using spacers thicker than 0.4 mm when soldered to a board.
