The single-row layout and latch-lock fastening give a clean, positive mate in harness assemblies where vibration or cable strain is present.
The 1-480698-9 accepts Universal MATE-N-LOK crimp terminals in either male or pin form factor — the housing is unkeyed for contact gender. The crimp terminals are ordered as separate line items; typical compatible TE part numbers include the 350550 series for the pin contact and 350218 for the socket contact, though the exact terminal selection depends on wire gauge (typically 14-20 AWG for this series). No contacts are included in the housing package, so the procurement planner must add the terminal MPNs to the BOM alongside this housing.
