This is the male plug half that mates with a corresponding EI series receptacle housing to complete a 5-circuit harness. Rated for an operating temperature range of -20°C to 95°C, the PA66 housing provides a solid balance of mechanical strength and cost for internal, dry-environment applications. The single-row, 5-position layout keeps the connector compact — useful where panel or enclosure space is tight. ## What Fits — Contacts and Mating Half The housing ships without contacts. The free-hanging mount means no panel flange or board-lock hardware — the connector is retained by the friction of the mated pair and the latch on the mating half. For applications that see vibration, a secondary locking feature (if available in the receptacle) or a wire-tie through the housing body can add security. The closest functional sibling is the 1-1376477-6, a 6-position plug housing at the same 0.098\" (2.50 mm) pitch and free-hanging mount, but in red PA66 with glass fill. The difference is strictly the circuit count — 5 positions vs 6 — so if your BOM calls for 5 circuits, the 172211-5 is the match; the 6-position version won't fit a 5-circuit harness without leaving a cavity empty.","metaTitle":"TE 172211-5 EI Plug Housing, 5 Pos 2.50mm, Active","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 172211-5 EI series plug housing, 5 positions, 2.50mm pitch, natural PA66.
