Product details

Contacts are not included. This is an empty shell.

The free-hanging design lets it plug into a board-mounted header or into a mating plug housing in a harness-to-harness configuration. Termination is crimp-only.

For a multi-year production program, this housing can be specified without obsolescence risk — the HE13/HE14 series is a mature, widely-used TE Connectivity platform that remains in active manufacture.
