DuoPlug IDC Receptacle, 3 Positions, 5.00mm Pitch
The natural housing is a single-row female blade socket that mates to a PCB header (sold separately). The right-angle cable exit means the wire runs parallel to the board after mating, which helps in shallow enclosures where straight-out clearance is tight. The connector is free-hanging (in-line), so it's not panel-mounted — it floats on the wire harness and relies on the mating header for mechanical retention. No latch lock is listed on this variant, so vibration resistance depends on the header's own retention features; for applications with shock or continuous vibration, consider the 4-position sibling (1-1703095-1) which adds a latch lock.
3 Positions vs 4-Position Sibling
The closest functional sibling in the DuoPlug series is the 1-1703095-1, a 4-position receptacle with the same 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, same IDC termination, same natural housing, and same free-hanging right-angle orientation. If your assembly sees vibration or the harness is frequently mated/unmated, the latch lock on the 4-position version gives you a mechanical lock that the 3-position lacks. For a fixed installation where the connector stays mated, the 3-position is fine — just confirm the header side has its own retention.
