Cable gender changer InLine 92504O — adapter for reversing connector orientation

The InLine 92504O adapter combines a 10‑pin IDC (2×5) socket with a 5‑pin screw terminal strip on a compact printed circuit board to allow quick, solderless connection of digital signals, power lines or control lines. The side‑accessible terminal block uses a pressure plate and accepts stranded wires from 16–26 AWG; an EVA insulating layer on the underside protects conductive mounting surfaces. The adapter is designed for industrial and test environments where clear pin assignment, space‑saving PCB mounting and simple wiring are required.

Advantages

Tool‑assisted wiring with the 5‑pin screw terminal saves installation time and supports stranded conductors in the 16–26 AWG range. The standardized 10‑pin IDC interface (2×5, 2.54 mm pitch) provides clear pin assignment for structured signal routing. The compact, stable PCB design allows direct integration into housings, adapter panels or test setups. Electrical safety is supported by tested insulation resistance up to 300 V DC, a rated current of 1 A per pin and 100% short‑circuit testing.

Suitable for

• Signal and control wiring in test rigs and laboratory equipment
• Commissioning and embedded projects requiring reversible connections

How to use

Insert the mating 10‑pin connector into the IDC socket (2×5) and secure the adapter inside the enclosure or panel as needed. Strip and insert stranded wires (16–26 AWG) into the corresponding screw terminals, ensuring correct assignment of GND and signal lines. Tighten the pressure plate screws using a flat‑blade screwdriver up to 2.5 mm. The EVA insulation on the underside allows safe placement on non‑insulated surfaces.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long‑term operation, verify correct signal assignment before powering the system, avoid exceeding 1 A per pin or 100 V between signals, and perform routine checks of terminal screws for secure contact in vibration‑exposed installations.
