Working Principle

The 71991-430LF is an insulation displacement contact. This means that it works by combining insulation displacement with a direct line of sight connection between mating points. In other words, the 71991-430LF works by using a flat blade connector that slices through the insulation of the wires. This creates a secure and reliable connection without the need for any soldering. In addition, the 71991-430LF has IDC contacts, which allow it to connect to stranded or solid-wire cables. The IDC contacts are also designed to provide vibration and shock protection, which help ensure the signal is always running smoothly.

The 71991-430LF is an ideal choice for applications that require robust connection and reliable signal integrity. It is designed to provide a secure and reliable connection without the need for soldering and has vibration and shock protection. This makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, from telecommunications and data transport to power delivery and signal transmission.
