TE Connectivity MULTILOCK Connector Systems are used extensively in the automotive industry in wire-to-wire and wire-to-board applications. MULTILOCK Connector System consists of a plug housing with receptacle contacts and a cap housing with tab contacts for wire termination. Additionally, the MULTILOCK Connectors have a cap housing assembly that can be mounted onto the printed circuit board either vertically or horizontally.
