Overview

The 3-640441-4 is a 4-position, single-row rectangular receptacle from the MTA-100 series designed for 24 AWG discrete wire or ribbon cable. It features an Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) system that allows for rapid termination without the need to strip individual wires. The connector is designed for 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch headers and includes a locking ramp for secure mating in high-vibration environments.

Why Choose This Part

The IDC termination method significantly reduces labor costs by eliminating wire stripping and crimping steps. Its locking ramp provides a physical detent that prevents accidental disconnection, while the tin plating offers a cost-effective solution for standard signal applications.

Applications

Internal Peripheral Power
Connecting low-power fans, sensors, or peripheral modules to a main control board.
Wire-to-Board Signal Routing
Providing reliable signal paths for user interface panels or status LEDs in industrial equipment.
