The TE Connectivity 3-644540-8 is an 8-position MTA-100 IDC receptacle designed for mass-termination of discrete or ribbon cable to a board header.
IDC Termination and Wire Gauge
The feed-through feature lets you daisy-chain multiple receptacles on the same continuous wire run, which is useful for distributing power or signals to several points on a cable without splicing.
Tin-plated contacts at 80.0µin (2.03µm) thickness give adequate corrosion resistance for indoor equipment; the thick tin layer also withstands the wiping action during multiple insertion cycles better than a thin flash.
