DuoPlug IDC Receptacle for Discrete Wire
The TE DuoPlug 5-1534798-6 is a 6-position, single-row receptacle that terminates 22-24 AWG discrete wire via insulation displacement — no crimp terminals, no separate contacts to load. Tin-plated female blade sockets suit low-cycle, semi-permanent installations where frequent unmating is not required.
What mates with this connector?
This receptacle mates to a PCB-mounted header — the "Mates to PCB" feature confirms the interface is a board-side pin header, not a wire-to-wire plug. The 6-position, 2.50mm pitch single-row layout is the geometry to match on the header side. No specific header part number is listed in the spec, but any TE DuoPlug header with the same position count and pitch is the form-fit target.
IDC termination for discrete 22-24 AWG wire means the insulation is displaced by the contact slot as the wire is pressed in — no stripping, no crimping. The wire gauge range is narrow; 22 AWG is the largest that fits the slot, and 24 AWG the smallest that maintains a reliable gas-tight joint. The right-angle cable exit requires the wire to bend immediately after the IDC slot, so a flexible strand construction (stranded 22-24 AWG) tracks better than solid wire.
