Overview

The Mencom MDC-4FP-5M-R is a 4-pole Micro-DC (M12) female right-angle cordset designed for industrial automation and control systems. This cordset features a 5-meter yellow PVC cable (AWM 4 x 22 AWG) with a 5mm outer diameter, rated for 300V and 4A at temperatures from -40°C to +105°C. The right-angle female connector uses a nickel-plated brass coupling nut and follows the M12x1 standard with a single keyway, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard Micro-DC receptacles. This cordset is ideal for applications requiring reliable power and signal transmission in harsh environments, including factory automation, robotics, and machinery control. The PVC jacket provides standard durability, while the 4-conductor configuration supports brown, white, blue, and black wiring (pin 5 unused). With an IP69 rating, it resists high-pressure washdowns and contaminants, making it suitable for food processing, packaging, and outdoor installations. Mencom’s MDC series offers flexibility with multiple cable jacket options (PVC, PUR, TPE) and shielded variants for EMI protection. Standard lengths range from 1 to 15 meters, with custom lengths available on request. The right-angle design minimizes space constraints in tight panel or equipment mounting scenarios, reducing cable stress and improving installation ergonomics.
