Huizhou Antenk Electronics Co., Ltd., an IATF16949:2016, ISO9001:2015 and ISO14001:2015 certified high-tech enterprise founded in 2007 with over 300 employees and a 10000 square meter Huizhou facility, presents the 1.27mm Series 20P Hood Straight Exit Split. This IDC insulation displacement connector is designed for 1.27mm pitch flat ribbon cable with 20 positions, featuring a straight exit hood that aligns cables parallel to the PCB and a split construction that allows the hood to be attached after cable termination. The connector housing is molded from UL94 V0 rated glass filled PBT with a temperature rating of 260 degrees Celsius for soldering processes. Contacts are stamped from phosphor bronze with selective gold plating of 0.4 microns on the IDC fork tips, ensuring gas tight connections that resist oxidation and vibration. Key characteristics include contact resistance below 15 milliohms, insulation resistance of 1000 megohms minimum, dielectric strength of 500V AC for 1 minute, current rating of 1A per contact, and operating temperature range from -40 to +105 degrees Celsius. The split hood provides strain relief and polarization, and the straight exit design minimizes cable bending radius. The product is RoHS and REACH compliant and UL recognized under E472792.
This 1.27mm 20P hooded IDC connector is ideal for internal wiring in space constrained electronics such as medical diagnostic equipment, industrial PLC modules, telecommunications switches, data storage arrays, security surveillance DVRs, automotive infotainment systems, and test measurement instruments - markets where Antenk already serves customers including Flextronics, Foxconn, and Fortune 500 companies across the USA, Germany, South Korea, India, Russia, and beyond. Usage method: prepare 1.27mm pitch 20 conductor flat ribbon cable. Place the cable into the open IDC contact slot, ensuring correct orientation indicated by the polarization key. Use a manual or pneumatic press tool to terminate the cable, driving the contacts through the insulation. Then slide the straight exit split hood over the terminated cable and snap it onto the connector body. The split design allows hood installation even with pre assembled cables. Finally, solder the connector pins to the PCB using wave or reflow soldering. Precautions: ensure cable conductors align with contact forks; do not exceed 1A per contact; avoid bending the cable sharply near the hood exit; operate within -40 to +105 degrees Celsius. Advantages over competitors: unlike competitors who use one piece hoods that cannot be added after termination, Antenks split hood enables easy retrofitting and field assembly. Competitors often have inconsistent IDC fork geometry leading to intermittent connections; Antenk uses precision stamped forks with 100 percent insulation displacement verification. While others require 20000 plus MOQ for custom hood tooling, Antenk offers low MOQs of 1000 units with no tooling fees for standard 20P configurations. Our IATF16949 certification ensures automotive grade quality, and our in house 40 plus lab test devices including XRF, environmental chambers, and dielectric testers guarantee every batch meets EIA 364 standards.
Antenks vertical integration delivers consistent quality for the 1.27mm 20P hooded IDC connector. Process flow: first, in house mold design using our 380 plus plastic injection molds for the housing, split hood, and contact carrier. Second, injection molding on 10 Japanese Taiwanese 35 to 120 ton machines using glass filled PBT at melt temperature 270 degrees Celsius, mold temperature 85 degrees Celsius, cycle time 14 seconds. Third, high speed stamping of IDC contacts on 9 Japanese Taiwanese presses using 0.20mm phosphor bronze strip with precision fork tip geometry of 0.3mm gap. Fourth, selective barrel plating: nickel underplate of 2 microns plus gold of 0.4 microns on the IDC fork tips only. Fifth, automated assembly: insertion of contacts into housing using high speed assembly machines, followed by loose packing of split hoods. Sixth, 100 percent electrical continuity and contact height inspection using automated vision systems. Seventh, contact resistance testing per EIA 364 06 below 15 milliohms. Eighth, insulation resistance testing per EIA 364 21 at 500V DC. Ninth, dielectric withstanding voltage testing per EIA 364 20 at 500V AC. Tenth, IDC fork penetration test using standard ribbon cable to verify insulation displacement. Eleventh, 48 hour salt spray corrosion testing on sample basis. Finally, final QC with lot traceability and dimensional report. Our laboratory houses more than 40 testing devices including XRF, profile projectors, environmental chambers, and dielectric testers. With over 300 employees, more than 18 mold making machines, and over 180 automatic assembly machines, we provide free samples, complete 2D and 3D CAD drawings, and 24 hour technical support.
