The Molex 0014562071 is a 7-circuit SL 70400 series receptacle, designed for mass-termination of 24 AWG discrete or ribbon cable via an IDC (insulation displacement) contact. The single-row, free-hanging body mates with the matching SL pin header — no crimp tool required, just a hand press or bench fixture for the IDC slot.
Termination and Wiring — No Crimp, No Mess
IDC termination punches through the insulation and grabs the conductor in one stroke — the wire does not need stripping or crimping. The 24 AWG wire gauge is the only size listed; the slot geometry won't reliably terminate a thicker or thinner gauge. The closed-end feature means the back of the housing is sealed, so the cable exits cleanly without a secondary cover.
Lifecycle and Sourcing — Active, No Surprises
That means no last-time-buy clock ticking — it's a standard catalog part you can quote against a BOM quantity without worrying about phase-out.
