Assembled Configuration
■Insulation Displacement (IDC) versus Crimp Termination
IDC termination provides the following advantages over crimp style termination, when using discrete wires;
•Overall cost is lower, because less manhours are required. Wire
stripping is eliminated and inspection is easier.
•IDC termination provides consistent quality, improving yield.
•XG5 terminals are installed in the socket housing at the factory,
simplifying the Bill of Material and parts control.
•Optional replacement IDC terminals facilitates re-configuration of wiring.
