The 87499-8: The housing is free-hanging (in-line), meaning it terminates a cable assembly and mates with a board-mounted header — no panel cutout needed. Black thermoplastic insulation handles -65°C to 105°C, covering most equipment interiors and automotive cabin environments.
The One Thing You Must Order Separately
This housing ships empty — the listing explicitly notes contacts are not included. You need to source the matching AMPMODU Mod IV crimp terminals separately. The housing accepts either male or female contacts, so the same shell can serve as a receptacle or a plug depending on which terminal you load. For a standard wire-to-board build, use the receptacle housing with female crimp sockets and mate it to a 0.100" pitch header.
Mating and Termination Checklist
Mates with any AMPMODU Mod IV 0.100" pitch pin header of the same 4-position count. The crimp termination requires a separate hand or automatic crimp tool for the terminal — no soldering. The free-hanging mount means the housing sits in-line on the wire bundle; no board lock or panel feature is present. Single-row layout keeps the harness narrow.
