This is a common gotcha for anyone pulling this part from a BOM without checking the line items.
The 2-row arrangement means the mating header will have 7 pins in a 2-row grid. For the terminals, you will need the Mini CT crimp contacts rated for your wire gauge (typically 20-24 AWG in this series); order those as a separate line item since the housing arrives empty.
No — the 1612257-7 is a receptacle housing only; contacts are not included and must be ordered separately as Mini CT crimp terminals.
The 1612257-7 mates with a 7-position Mini CT plug header in a 2-row configuration. Confirm the pin count and row arrangement match your harness design.
