14-Position IDC Receptacle for MTA-100 Harnesses
The closed-end housing prevents the header pins from pushing through the back, a common failure when an open-end IDC connector is mated to a longer pin header.
Locking Ramp and Right-Angle Wire Exit
The green housing is a visual line identifier — it distinguishes this 14-position receptacle from other MTA-100 color variants during build or rework.
IDC Termination for 28 AWG
Termination is IDC — the 28 AWG wire is pressed into insulation-displacement slots in the contact, so no separate crimp terminal is needed. This saves a crimp station and a part number on the BOM, but the trade-off is that the wire gauge is fixed at 28 AWG; the IDC slot geometry won't grip a thinner or thicker wire reliably. The connector accepts discrete or ribbon cable, so it works for both point-to-point wiring and multi-conductor ribbon harnesses.
