Abstract
A dual-head IDC terminal has the design of different intervals such that the interval of the IDC terminals of the same pair is smaller than the distance between two neighboring IDC terminals. The IDC terminal is installed in a biased fashion and has an extension flap to increase the compensation effect for the IDC terminals of different pairs but with the same line position attributes, thereby to conform to the EIA/TIA Category 6 standards. The structure is simple and the size is compact, and may be assembled without using special wiring machines.
Claims9
A dual-head IDC terminal, comprising:
- a terminal seat having a plurality of insert slot pairs which form an acute angle with the direction of the longitudinal axis of the terminal seat, each pair of the insert slots having an interval smaller than the distance between two neighboring insert slots of different pairs;
- and
- a plurality of IDC terminal pairs having two ends which each form an IDC end, and an extension flap located proximately to a middle portion of each terminal and extended towards the other IDC terminal of the pair, the IDC terminals being inserted in the insert slots and being close to a IDC terminal of a neighboring pair of same line position attributes through the extension flap.
