The TE Connectivity MTA-100 4-640442-4 is a 14-position IDC receptacle designed for terminating 26 AWG discrete or ribbon cable. The closed-end design prevents stubbing during cable insertion, and the locking ramp fastening type secures the mate against vibration in harness assemblies.
IDC Termination for Harness Assembly
The receptacle accepts both discrete wires and ribbon cable, giving the harness builder flexibility.
Position Count: 14 vs 17 in the Same Series
The closest functional peer in the MTA-100 family is the 1-226733-4, a 17-position receptacle with a detent lock instead of a locking ramp. Both use IDC termination and the same 0.100" pitch, but the 4-640442-4 is a single-row, 14-position part while the 1-226733-4 is a dual-row, 17-position part.
