It uses a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, single-row layout, and terminates 22 AWG wire directly via insulation displacement — no wire stripping or crimping needed. The red closed-end housing accepts the cable from the rear and the locking ramp secures the mate to a matching MTA-100 header. This is a free-hanging, right-angle exit receptacle, suited for internal wire-to-board harnesses in appliances, HVAC controls, and industrial equipment where the MTA-100 system is already specified on the board.
The 6-position count matches a 6-circuit BOM line exactly — no unused cavities. The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch is the standard MTA-100 grid, so the board footprint is shared across the whole series. Tin contacts with 80.0µin (2.03µm) plating are cost-effective for moderate mating cycles (typically 25-50 mates) in dry indoor environments; the thick tin layer handles the IDC wipe without exposing base metal. The closed end means the last position is blocked, preventing the cable from being pushed through and giving a defined stop for the wire bundle.
No crimp tool, no solder. The MTA-100 system uses a simple hand or pneumatic press; the wire is loaded from the rear, and the cap is pressed down. The connector accepts discrete wires or ribbon cable — if using ribbon, the pitch matches standard 0.100" ribbon.
