easy-wire Adapters
Easy-wire adapters provide ease of setup for harness boards. They provide the same flexibility as our standard 'Signature' adapters have provided for years on our Cirris cable testers. They are configured to work with a wide variety of connector types, shapes, and pin quantities.
- Vice Test Block: Used to clamp and hold a customer supplied mating connector.
- USB Style Cable: (EC30-10) 4 conductor cable 1 meter / 40" long.
- USB Style Cable: (EC60-10) 4 Conductor cable 2 meters / 80" long.
- USB End Caps and Spacers: Allow multiple USB connectors to be grouped into a single plug.
- Red/Green LED: Used for guided assembly and error notification.
Transition Boards
easy-wire Transition Board Options
- Part: USB Connections (Part No. ETB-USB)
- Number of Positions:.....64
- Eliminates the need for traditional 'back wiring'. The USB Adapter Transition Board provides quick and easy connection between the CR tester and your mating connectors.
- Part: 'Screw Type' Discrete Wire Connections (Part No. ETB-ST)
- Number of Positions:.....64
- Provides for discrete-wire connections when a permanent harness board fixture is desired. Uses 64-conductor flat ribbon cable to connect to the tester(AC22-64 or AC42-64). Transition board mounts on harness board perimeter. Discrete wire connections are made between screw or screw less terminals and test blocks.
- Part: 'ScrewLESS Type' Discrete Wire Connections (Part No. ETB-SLT)
- Number of Positions:.....64
- Provides for discrete-wire connections when a permanent harness board fixture is desired. Uses 64-conductor flat ribbon cable to connect to the tester(AC22-64 or AC42-64). Transition board mounts on harness board perimeter. Discrete wire connections are made between screw or screw less terminals and test blocks.
End Caps & Spacers
End Caps and Spacers provide locking strain relief and allow for easy grouping of multiple 4-conductor Adapter Cables into a single end piece. This end piece plugs into the USB Adapter Transition Board. Mating connectors with more than 18 contacts should be split into two or more end pieces (Max. 5 USB connectors per group)

Custom Plate Mount
Enable customers to attach custom test platforms to the grid tiles. The Plate Mounts screw directly onto your custom plate which then may be clipped to Long brackets. You can configure your custom plate in any size or shape which meets your needs then clip it to the tile field. The photo on the left shows Plate Mounts attached to the custom platform but not attached to any brackets or the tile field.
ECC Test Blocks
Recommended for high cycle production testing. Standard mating connectors often are not robust enough for high cycle rates found in automated testing situations. This Test-block approach can also be used when standard mating connectors are not available or are not allowed to be used by your customer. Depending on the size of the connectors involved these test blocks can also be mounted on to easy-wire grid tiles using easy-wire bracket bases etc. Because the custom test blocks are custom made to match your specific connector, ECC usually request that you send a sample of the connector/s you need to mate to. This will give them enough information to evaluate the requirements of the connector, develop a fixed price quote and establish a delivery schedule.
