12-Position, 3-Row Universal MATE-N-LOK Receptacle Housing
The TE Connectivity 1-480709-0 is a 12-position receptacle housing from the Universal MATE-N-LOK series, arranged in 3 rows with a 0.250" (6.35mm) row spacing. The natural polyamide (nylon) body carries a locking ramp for positive retention in vibration-prone environments like automotive underhood harnesses, industrial control panels, and appliance power distribution.
Panel Mount with Locking Ramp
Mounting is panel-mount, snap-in — the housing clips into a rectangular panel cutout without hardware.
Contacts Ordered Separately — Crimp Termination
The 1-480709-0 accepts either male or female crimp contacts from the Universal MATE-N-LOK terminal family. The crimp termination allows field-assembly of custom wire lengths — strip, crimp, insert until the terminal locks, then extract with a removal tool if needed. Confirm the wire gauge range of the selected terminal against your harness build before ordering.
