From the Above link we need to download .stp file from the TE.com website.After dowloand the file we have to save as .CATpart.

Connector connection point:

Create midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bunddle insertion.

.

Craete Axis System with respect to the point which we have created and defining the axis direction as shown below,

Switch to 'Electric Part Design'

Define the part as connector in catia, give no. of termination as 8 because we have 8 entry points for wire.

Define Bundle connection point

Define connector connection point

• Create midpoint
• create Connector connection point
• create Connector connection axis system
• create cavity connection point
• create cavity connection axis system
• Switch to Electric part design and define part as connector
• Define Connector connection point and cavity connection point

From the Above link we need to download .stp file from the TE.com website.After dowloand the file we have to save as .CATpart.

• Create midpoint
• create cavity connection point
• create cavity connection axis system and orientation should be same as in connector
• Switch to Electric part design and define part as Mounting Equipment
• Define cavity connection point

Elctric Assembly Design

• Import Connector and cavity / mounting clip.
• Select Defing Eelectric connection 
• select cavity and then connector.
