Miniature Ribbon
Introduction
The Miniature Ribbon connector has been a mainstay in the electronics
industr y for decades. First widely used in telecommunications, it has proven
itself to be a very reliable interconnection system, with generous wiping action,
high contact pressure, large mating surface area in a relatively compact for-
mat, and polarized shells to ensure proper orientation in mating.
The Miniature Ribbon connector gets its name from the ribbon-like shape of
the mating end of the contact. It is a derivative of the first connector design to
incor porate this type of interconnection where mating members are equally
flexible. Each contact is backed up by its respective insulator, resulting in high
contact pressure without concern over relaxation that can occur with a beam
or cantilever design. Industr y standard sizes for this product are 14, 24, 36,
50, and 64 positions. Cinch adheres to industry-standard contact numbering
and mating geometr y.
Cinch has led the way in making the Miniature Ribbon connector one of the
most cost-effective yet high-quality connector systems in the industr y. From its
roots in the telecommunications industry where it is traditionally known as the
“Key Telephone” style connector (USOC Type RJ21), Cinch’s innovations in
termination, latching, and accessor ies have helped make the Miniature Ribbon
family the choice for applications in computers and instrumentation as well. It
is called out as the standard connector for a parallel printer interface (IEEE
1284-B, also known as “Centronics”), multi-pur pose peripheral interface
(SCSI-1), and instrumentation interface (IEEE-488, also know as “GPIB”).
Cinch manufactures one of the most diverse lines of Miniature Ribbon
products in the industr y. From SUPERIBBONTM all-plastic products with
solderless ter mination to full-metal shell products with solder ter minations,
and even filtered versions designed to solve EMI problems, Cinch can
provide the Miniature Ribbon products you need.
Several options are available so you can find the right Cinch Miniature Ribbon
product for your application. Cinch’s method of integrating
features into the product often
reduces overall installed cost compared to other
alternatives.
Select the termination type, the configuration, the
latching and mounting methods to be used, and any accessories that
would make the installation of the connector complete.

Introduction
Termination Options
Cinch offers products suitable for termination by various methods:
IDC -- Cinch’s patented Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) provides reliable,
low-cost termination to discrete wire, either loose or in jacketed cable. With the use
of special tools designed for field and/or factory use, wires can be terminated to the
connector without individual cutting, stripping, or solder ing. Reliable performance
is ensured by the exclusive 4-point contact ter mination, and the built-in wire strain
relief prevents mechanical stress from reaching the termination points.
Cinch IDC connectors are available in both Metal Shell and All-Plastic
SUPERIBBON versions. They are available to terminate solid conductor (some 22
AWG, and 24-26 AWG) or stranded (24-28 AWG) wire. Likewise, a full range of
termination tooling is available.
Wire Wrap -- This termination style, which is also solderless, is often used when
termination must be done in place, such as in wired backplanes, etc. Cinch wire-
wrap terminated Miniature Ribbon connectors are available in both Metal Shell and
All-Plastic versions, with either .025" or .045" sq. tails.
Solder Cup -- For those applications where nothing but the lowest ter mination
resistance will do, Cinch offers Metal Shell Miniature Ribbon connectors with
solder-cup termination. Available with or without insulator barriers between
contact terminal areas, these products will accept up to one 22 AWG solid wire
or one 24 AWG stranded wire per contact.
Solder Tail -- This style allows Cinch Miniature Ribbon connectors to be through-
hole soldered directly to a printed circuit board.They are available in Ver tical Mount
and Right-Angle Mount versions.
Compliant Pin -- This style allows termination to a printed circuit board without
soldering. This eliminates the costly cleaning/rework associated with soldering,
yet the Cinch modified-C type termination will not damage the board’s plating as
standard press-fit terminals can.
Configuration
Cinch Miniature Ribbon and SUPERIBBON products are available as connectors alone to
be mounted to a system’s panel or printed circuit board, or complete with hoods for use
on various types of cable assemblies. Hooded products are available with cable exits
straight back 180 degrees from the mating face (Top-Entr y) or with cable exits on either
end, 90, or 270 degrees from the mating face (Standard and Reverse Orientation End-
Entr y). Finally, overmold kits are available allowing you to efficiently and economically
manufacture your own “custom” cable assemblies.
End-Entr y SuperShieldTM connectors and All-Plastic SUPERIBBON connectors feature an
integral cable clamp that prevents stress on the termination area, even when the hood is
removed during assembly or repair.
Top-Entr y products have cable clamps built into the hoods. These clamps are adjustable
to fit a range of cable sizes.

Introduction
Latching Options
Miniature Ribbon and SUPERIBBON products exhibit a degree of self-locking inherent in
the contact design; however, additional locking means are recommended to prevent
connectors from being unmated inadvertently. Choices include:
Screwlock Hardware -- the simplest connectors require the use of separate threaded
hardware to lock mating connectors together. Some Cinch Miniature Ribbon cable
connectors include locking screws; hardware for other configurations may be found
in the Accessories section of the Miniature Ribbon line.
Some panel-mount products are available with fixed female (internal thread)
screwlocks that provide an integral threaded screwlock as par t of the connector.
Bail Latches -- as an alternative to screwlock hardware, Cinch offers many
configurations with industry-standard bail latches. These connectors have wire clips
on each end of the socket, and mating plugs have notched ends that these clips
snap into.
Bail latches offer the advantage of operating without any tools. Because of
this, they have been standardized into several applications, including “Centronics”
36-position parallel printer interface and SCSI-1 peripheral interface bus.
Bail latch sockets include standard “straight” latches, suitable for top entry
configurations. Special latches can be ordered to replace one standard latch to fit
under the cable on end entry mating plug assemblies.
InstaLatchTM -- all Cinch SUPERIBBON all-plastic sockets and some metal shell
Miniature Ribbon sockets are available with a Cinch-patented latching system called
InstaLatch. In this passive latching system, spring clips at each end of the socket
automatically lock into windows in the shell of the mating plug securing the two
connectors together. Audible feedback confirms that the connectors are
indeed locked.
InstaLatches may be unlocked by depressing the latch at either end of the connector,
using almost any small, pointed-end tool. A special tool is also available to unlatch
InstaLatches when connectors are laid out in a tight arrangement.
J-Hooks -- These devices, available on selected Miniature Ribbon products,
automatically lock onto the nose and hood of mating end entry connectors. They
are easily unlatched without special tools and are more accessible than other latches
in cer tain applications.

Introduction
Mounting Options
Var ious mounting options are available with Cinch Miniature Ribbon
and SUPERIBBON products:
Through-Hole/Threaded Hole -- These products require separate hardware to mount
the connector to a panel or other component. Versions are available to accommodate
#3, #4, and in some cases, through #8 hardware.
Standard size cutouts are adequate for mounting panel-mount connectors to system
panels with this type of hardware. They may be front- or rear-mounted. (Sockets with
bail latches, however, must be front-mounted unless a modified cutout is used to clear
the latch retaining hardware.)
Metal Shell PC Mount products are available in some versions with standoffs to the
printed circuit board. These may be conductive or insulated.

Plug or Fixed-Mount Socket Float-Mount Socket
Panel Clips -- These devices are add-on accessories for All-Plastic products and are
available as optional configurations on cer tain Metal Shell products. They allow you to
mount the connector to the system panel without screws, nuts, or spacers, and leave
the connector’s mounting holes free for use in latching, if so desired.
Boardlocks -- These devices, found on cer tain solder-tail PC mount products, fasten the
connector to the printed circuit board with solder as par t of the wave soldering process.
Thus, there is no additional labor required to complete the assembly, and a cost savings
can often be realized.

Snap-on plastic top-entr y hoods are available separately to
provide strain relief to a cable when one of the mounting/
latching options from page 6-9 fits your requirements. See
page 6-53 for details and ordering information for top-entry
all-plastic hoods.
For bail latching applications, a 50-position size top-entry
plug is available. It locks with industry-standard bail latches
for positive locking/unlocking without tools. It also locks with
InstaLatch latches for passive automatic latching.
For these products, insulator material is blue UL94V-0 rated
glass-filled polyester, and hood mater ial is gray UL94V-0
rated glass-filled polyester.
The standard-orientation plug has the cable clamp on the position-1 end, and the
standard-orientation socket has the clamp on the high position end.
Cables may be extended end-to-end (i.e.,
running cable”) by mating standard-
orientation plugs and sockets, or “doubled back” by mating a standard-orientation
connector with a reverse-orientation mate.
Cables may exit either direction on a cable-to-panel application by choosing
standard or reverse-orientation, depending on the desired direction of cable exit.
Pointed-nose versions of the standard-orientation, 50-position size are slightly
smaller than the square-end product and are suited to applications with limited
space such as bridging adapters, etc.
#4-40 versions include screws that are 3/4" long, suitable for locking directly to
the body of another connector. For locking to connectors panel-mounted with
screwlock hardware, shor ter screws are required. See pages 6-51 thru 6-53 for
these and other accessories, such as dust covers.

Panel Mount
“Panel mount” products are connectors without hoods.They are typically used to provide signal I/O from a system panel or
cabinet, where strain relief to a cable jacket is not required.
Standard versions have .103" mounting holes (sockets have .103" with float bushings) for use with #3 hardware,
or with .185" mounting holes for use with #8 hardware.
Select sizes are available with .120" or .113" mounting holes for use with #4 hardware, or with integral panel
clips, which allow snap-in front mounting on .093" thick panels for more cost-effective assembly.
Bail latching sockets are available, as are bail latching plugs.While the plugs would not be panel-mounted,
they are available for premold/solder over molding applications.
SuperShield products include modified shells that assure interference fit between mated connectors
for improved shielding performance.
See page 6-4 for recommended standard panel cutout dimensions.
See pages 6-51 thru 6-52 for accessories such as wire restraints, mounting screws, and dust covers, which make the use of
Cinch Miniature Ribbon connectors even more cost-effective in panel-mount applications.
See the appropriate cable connector section that follows for products that include hoods for exposed-cable applications.

180° (Top-Entry) Cable
Top-Entr y products include a connector, hood (or over mold can), and associated hardware.
They are typically used at the end of a cable, where it is subject to physical strain and protection of the termination
area is required.
Includes all hardware required to attach hood to connector.
Bail latching sockets have latch hardware integral to the connector body, making cable assembly more efficient.
Bail latching plugs include notches that lock with industry-standard bail-latch sockets.
Select configurations are available as overmold kits, which lower assembly costs by eliminating premolding and foil
soldering. Kits include connector and overmold cans. Crimp ferrules, which ground cable shields and provide strain relief,
must be ordered separately.
Ordering information for crimp ferrules is at end of end-entr y product section. See page 6-22.

90° (Standard) / 270° (Reverse) End-Entry Cable
End-Entr y connectors, available in 50 position size only, include a hood and integral cable clamp for cable exit from the
end of the connector.
The standard-orientation plug has the cable clamp on the position 1/26 end,
and the standard-orientation socket has the clamp on the position 25/50 end.
Cables may be extended end-to-end (i.e., “running cable”) by mating standard-
orientation plugs and sockets, or “doubled back” by mating a standard-
orientation connector with a reverse-orientation mate.
Cables may exit either direction on a cable-to-panel application by choosing
standard or reverse-orientation, depending on the desired direction of
cable exit.
Include screw that is 5/8" long, suitable for locking directly to the body of
another connector. For locking to connectors panel-mounted with screwlock
hardware, shor ter screws are required. See page 6-51 for these and other
accessories, such as dust covers.

“Panel mount” products are connectors without hoods.They are typically used to provide signal I/O from a
system panel or cabinet, where strain relief to a cable jacket is not required.
Available with high barrier insulators that extend beyond the end of the solder cup, physically isolating
adjacent contacts.
Standard versions have .103" mounting holes (sockets have .103" with float bushings) for use with #3
hardware, or .185" mounting holes for use with #8 hardware.
Select sizes are available with .120" mounting holes for use with #4 hardware, or with integral panel
clips, which allow snap-in front mounting for more cost-effective assembly.
Bail latching sockets are available, as are bail latching plugs.While the plugs would not be panel-
mounted, they are available for premold/solder over molding applications.

90° (Standard) / 270° (Reverse) End-Entry Cable
End-Entr y connectors, available in 50 position size only, include a hood and integral cable clamp for cable exit from the end of
the connector
The standard-orientation plug has the cable clamp on the position 1/26
end, and the standard-orientation socket has the clamp on the position
25/50 end.
Cables may be extended end-to-end (i.e., “running cable”) by mating
standard-orientation plugs and sockets, or “doubled back” by mating a
standard-orientation connector with a reverse-orientation mate.
Cables may exit either direction on a cable-to-panel application by
choosing standard- or reverse-orientation, depending on the desired
direction of cable exit.
Include screw that is 5/8" long, suitable for locking directly to the body
of another connector. For locking to connectors panel-mounted
with screw-lock hardware, shor ter screws are required. See page 6-51
for these and other accessories, such as dust covers.

Miniature Ribbon
Ver tical-mount Miniature Ribbon connectors provide I/O directly from printed circuit boards, where the mating face of
the connector is in a plane parallel to that of the board.
Compliant-pin connectors terminate without solder to plated-through holes in pr inted circuit boards. The tail conforms
to the hole, providing a gas-tight ter mination without damaging the plating in the printed circuit board.
The seating cover acts as an inser tion tool fixture, and
must be left in place until the connector is installed on the
PCB.
It may also be left on after inser tion to ser ve as a dust cover to protect the connector from contamination.
See pages 6-51 through 6-53 for accessories such as bent bail latches and mounting screws that make the use of
Cinch Miniature Ribbon connectors even more cost-effective in board-mount applications.

Filtered Vertical-Mount Solder Tail Plug
Ver tical-mount Filtered Miniature Ribbon plugs provide filtered I/O directly from printed circuit boards, where the
mating face of the connector is in a plane parallel to that of the board. Filtering keeps conducted EMI from passing
between the system board and I/O cable.
The connector’s filter must be grounded to the system at the mounting holes, via either top flange or through the
lower standoff to a pad on the component side of the printed circuit board.
See page 6-51 for accessories such as dust covers and mounting screws that make the use of Cinch Filtered
Miniature Ribbon connectors even more cost-effective in board-mount applications.

Filtered Panel Mount Feedthrough Adapter
Filtered Ribbon Panel Mount Adapters provide filtered I/O in systems where internal cabling carries signals to the system panel.
By filtering r ight at the panel, EMI that could otherwise be generated over the length of the internal cable is prevented. The use of
a plug/socket adapter also yields a benefit in ser viceability. Should it ever be necessary to replace the filter, an adapter can be
readily replaced without replacing a bulky, more expensive cable assembly.
The adapter must be grounded to the system panel through the mounting hardware, which extends to both plug and socket
flanges; thus, the adapter may be mounted with either side to the panel.
Adapters are also available without filter capacitors. Often referred to as “connector savers”, these devices are most useful as
“throw away” intermediate interconnects in applications where numerous mating/unmating cycles are required.
See page 6-51 for accessories such as bent bail latches, dust covers, and mounting screws that make the use of Cinch Miniature
Ribbon Filtered Adapters even more cost-effective in panel mount-applications.

Dust Covers for all Metal Shell and All-Plastic Miniature Ribbon Connectors
Dust covers may be added to Miniature Ribbon or SUPERIBBON assemblies to protect
the mating area from damage or contamination when the connector is left unmated. They
can be useful for protection from handling damage during assembly, or can be left on the
connector for protection of unused system I/O por ts.
Compliant-pin Miniature Ribbon products come with special seating fixtures that must be
used to install the connectors onto the printed circuit board. These may be replaced after
inser tion; however, with standard dust covers to maintain the standard color code, if so
desired. Material: UL94V-0 rated polyethelene (blue for plug covers; red for socket covers)
