TE Connectivity 8-Way IDC Connector Female for Cable, 1 Row 3-640621-8

TE Connectivity 3-640621-8 8-Way IDC Connector Female for Cable, 1 Row is designed for efficient and reliable cable connections in electronic, industrial, and manufacturing applications. Featuring a 2.54mm pitch and eight contacts, this connector supports currents up to 5A at 250V AC and ensures secure mating through its shrouded female design and right-angle cable mount.

The connector belongs to the well-known MTA-100 series that specializes in mass termination assemblies. These connectors employ insulation displacement contact (IDC) technology that permits quick assembly without the need to strip wires, enhancing production efficiency and reducing labor costs. The housing is crafted from durable nylon material with molded ribs that prevent incorrect mating, while the contacts are made of phosphor bronze and plated with tin over nickel to resist corrosion and ensure robust electrical performance.

Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to 105°C, making it suitable for varied environmental conditions encountered in industrial and electronic systems. The housings are color-coded according to wire size, further simplifying installation. This connector system is compatible with standard MTA-100 PCB headers and supports cable wire gauges from 28 AWG to 22 AWG.

Typical applications include wire-to-board and wire-to-wire interconnections for equipment in power electronics, telecommunications, automation equipment, and other fields requiring precise and reliable signal or power connections.

With no specific certifications listed, this product meets basic functional standards expected of connectors in its class. The part number is 3-640621-8, ensuring traceability and ease of sourcing within TE Connectivity’s extensive product portfolio.
