Samtec Introduces New Twisted Pair IDC Cable

Samtec has introduced its new Twisted Pair IDC Cable Assemblies which provide up to 2.5 times the performance of traditional IDC Flat cable, but at a lower cost than Mid Data Rate Flex and High Data Rate Coax cables.

The differentially routed assemblies employ 32 AWG 7/40 Tinned, Twisted Pair cable with PVC insulation and Samtec’s high quality, multi-finger .050” (1,27mm) pitch Tiger IDC contact system. This is ideal for high reliability and high mating cycle applications.

The female assembly (FFTP Series) is double-ended with standard notch polarization and mates with Samtec’s standard .050” (1,27mm) Micro, Shrouded, and Ejector Headers.  The male assembly (FMTP Series) is available double-ended or with a transfer end (socket has notch polarization) and mates with Samtec’s standard .050” (1,27mm) Low Profile and Micro Socket Strips.

Both assemblies are available in a choice of cable lengths with an optional reverse connector on the second end and are RoHS compliant.
