The TE Connectivity 5-103957-8 is a 9-position IDC receptacle from the AMPMODU MTE series, terminated to discrete or ribbon cable by insulation displacement.
Termination and Cable Fit
This is an IDC (insulation displacement) connector, so no crimp tooling is needed — the cable is pressed into the slot, and the contact pierces the insulation. It accepts 22-26 AWG discrete wire or ribbon cable, making it a common choice for harness assemblies where you want a reliable termination without individual crimp operations. The closed-end feature prevents the cable from pushing through the housing during insertion.
Sourcing and Lifecycle
It is RoHS compliant. No official cross-reference or pin-compatible equivalent is on record, so match the 9-position count and 0.100" pitch to the BOM line and the mating header before committing.
