12-Position MCP Receptacle Housing for Wire-to-Wire Harnesses
The housing is molded in black glass-filled PA66 (Nylon 6/6) rated for -25°C to 125°C, which covers underhood automotive and industrial cabinet environments where thermal cycling is a given. The female socket cavities accept the matching MCP crimp terminals, which are inserted from the rear and retained by the housing's internal lance.
The 5.00 mm pitch is wider than the 2.00 mm or 2.50 mm pitches found on signal-level connectors like the 1-2333134-5 or 1-1376477-6. That extra pitch gives you more creepage distance per circuit — important when the harness carries power or runs in wet environments. The 6.00 mm row spacing means the two rows of cavities sit far enough apart that you can route wires from both rows without the insulation crowding at the back of the housing. Compared to the 6-position 1-2069882-6, which uses a 5.08 mm pitch and 7.62 mm row spacing, the 284848-1 packs 12 positions into a narrower row-to-row envelope. If your BOM calls for 12 circuits, the 284848-1 is the correct cavity count — the 6-position sibling leaves half the circuits unmated.
No official replacement or cross-reference part is listed by TE for this housing. If you are looking at the 1-2069882-6 as a potential alternative, note the different pitch (5.08 mm vs 5.00 mm) and row spacing (7.62 mm vs 6.00 mm) — those dimensions affect terminal insertion tooling and cavity fit, so verify compatibility before substituting.
