Cable gender changer InLine 92504P — adapter for reversing connector gender (model 92504P)

The InLine IDC-20-to-terminal block adapter (model 92504P) converts a 20-pin IDC socket (2×10) into a 10-pin screw terminal strip with pressure plate for quick signal wiring without soldering. The compact adapter is built on a stable printed circuit board with an EVA insulating layer on the underside for safe mounting on conductive surfaces. It is designed for structured installations in test benches, control devices, embedded systems and prototype environments where reliable, clearly labeled connections are required.

Advantages

The adapter allows tool-assisted wiring of single wires from 16–26 AWG using a flat-head screwdriver (≤ 2.5 mm), saving time during installation. The standardized 20-pin IDC interface with clear pin assignment supports orderly signal separation and professional system wiring. Electrical reliability is supported by insulation resistance tested at 300 V DC, 100% short-circuit and wiring testing, and a rated current of 0.8 A per pin.

Suitable for

• Prototyping and embedded applications
• Test benches and system tests
• Control cabinets and modular control systems
• Signal distribution with IDC ribbon cables

Key specifications

• IDC interface: 20-pin IDC socket (2×10), 2.54 mm pitch
• Screw terminal strip: 10 terminals, 5.0 mm pitch, with pressure plate
• Signal assignment: GND, D0–D7 (digital lines; assignment depends on application)
• Connection range: 16–26 AWG
• Actuation: flat-head screwdriver ≤ 2.5 mm
• Rated current: 0.8 A per pin
• Max. operating voltage: 100 V between two signals
• Insulation resistance: ≥ 10 MΩ @ 300 V DC
• Max. conductor resistance: 5 Ω
• Operating temperature: –10 °C to +70 °C
• Insulation layer: EVA on underside
• Dimensions: approx. 71 × 51 × 48.7 mm (W × H × D)

How to use

Insert the matching IDC ribbon cable into the 20-pin IDC socket (2×10) and secure it according to the connector’s retention method. Strip single conductors to the appropriate length and insert them into the corresponding screw terminals (terminals labeled for clarity). Tighten each pressure plate terminal with a flat-head screwdriver (≤ 2.5 mm) until the conductor is securely clamped. Note that two adjacent IDC pins are internally combined to one screw terminal (e.g., pins 1+2 → terminal 1); verify pin-to-terminal mapping before wiring.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter in dry, indoor environments within the specified temperature range and avoid exceeding the rated current and voltage. Verify wiring and continuity after installation; for long-term reliability in industrial systems, follow standard practices for strain relief and cable routing.
