Housing Identity and Fit
The TE Connectivity MCP 8-968970-2 is a 6-position, 2-row receptacle housing on a 5.00 mm pitch, designed for free-hanging (in-line) harness applications.
Crimp Contacts — Not Included
No official successor or direct cross-reference is on record; the closest functional peer is the 1-2069882-6, which shares the same 6-position, 2-row, free-hanging receptacle format but uses a 5.08 mm pitch and natural-colored housing. The pitch difference is small but should be verified against the mating header footprint before substituting.
