The TE Connectivity AMPMODU MT 5-102393-5 is a 14-position, 2-row receptacle that terminates discrete or ribbon cable via insulation displacement (IDC). The 30.0 µinch gold plating on the female sockets gives this connector a solid mating-cycle budget for field-service reconnects, not just a one-time factory mate.
Closed-End Housing, No Strain Worry on the Last Position
The black housing has a closed-end design — the last cavity is walled off, so there is no risk of a stray wire end or debris shorting the final contact. This matters when the connector sits at the end of a ribbon cable in a control cabinet where vibration can work a loose strand into an open slot. Free-hanging (in-line) mounting means it clips into the harness without a panel cutout.
IDC Termination — Field-Fit Without a Crimp Tool
The 26-30 AWG range covers common signal-level wiring for ribbon cable and discrete control wires. If you are re-pinning an existing harness on site, this receptacle lets you drop in a new length of cable with just a hand press or a vice, as long as the header side is the standard 0.100" pitch.
It is not a last-time-buy or phase-out part — it is still a standard catalog item from TE.
This receptacle mates with any 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch pin header that has 14 positions in a 2-row layout — the same pitch as the AMPMODU MT series headers and the broader AMPMODU family. No special keying or polarization is listed, so verify the header's shroud profile if the application needs mis-mate protection.
