The TE Connectivity 440129-7 is a 7-position, single-row receptacle housing from the High Performance Interconnect (HPI) series. It uses a 2.00mm pitch and is designed for free-hanging, in-line wire-to-board or wire-to-wire applications where a compact, reliable interconnect is needed.
Contacts Not Included — What That Means for Your BOM
The housing ships without contacts — the female socket crimp terminals must be ordered separately. This is standard for HPI housings; the buyer selects the wire-gauge-specific terminal and crimp tooling. Factor the terminal part number and quantity into the BOM line alongside the housing.
Mating and Termination Checklist
Mates with the corresponding HPI series male header (same 2.00mm pitch, 7 circuits). Termination is crimp-style — the female socket contacts are inserted into the housing after crimping onto the wire. The free-hanging, in-line mounting means no board footprint is needed; the housing clips into a panel or sits loose in a harness.
