IDC Plug for 26 AWG Discrete Wire, Right-Angle Exit
The TE Connectivity 281711-5 is a 5-position IDC plug from the HE13/HE14 series, terminated to 26 AWG discrete wire. This plug uses a detent lock for retention and carries tin-plated female sockets — adequate for low-cycle internal harnesses where cost per connection matters more than reconnect life.
Free-Hanging Right-Angle Mount — Cable Routes Parallel to Board Edge
The mounting type is free-hanging (in-line) with a right-angle cable exit. That means the wire exits parallel to the board edge rather than straight out — useful in tight enclosures where a straight IDC plug would hit the housing wall. The blue housing helps identify this plug in a bundle of similar connectors during harness assembly.
