Hybrid 8-position layout with dedicated power lanes
The 1456471-1 is an 8-position plug housing from TE's Generation Y series, arranged as 4 signal circuits plus 4 power circuits in a single housing. That split matters: the power contacts are physically larger and rated higher than the signal contacts, so you don't crowd a standard 8-way signal connector with a power load it wasn't designed for. It's an unsealed housing (no gasket or O-ring), so it's intended for dry interior environments — think control cabinets, appliance wiring, or harnesses inside an enclosure.
What goes in and what mates with it
Mating half is the corresponding Generation Y header (male pin header) with the same 8 (4+4) position count and latch lock feature. The header mounts to the PCB; this plug housing free-hangs in-line on the wire harness. Confirm the header part number against your BOM — the pitch and keying are series-specific.
