Overview

The Mencom MDC-T-4MFPF-2M is a 4-pole, 2-meter double-ended cordset engineered for industrial applications requiring reliable, high-integrity connections. This Micro-DC (MDC) series cordset features a male straight connector on one end and two female straight connectors on the other, enabling efficient branching or extension of M12-compatible devices. The durable yellow PVC cable jacket (AWM 4 x 22 AWG) is rated for 300V and 4A, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, making it suitable for harsh environments. The nickel-plated brass contacts ensure excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the M12 x 1 coupling nuts provide secure mating with IP69-rated protection against dust, oil, and high-pressure water jets. Designed for plug-and-play integration, this cordset simplifies installation in automation, robotics, and machinery applications where space and reliability are critical. The single keyway design prevents misalignment, reducing downtime during maintenance or reconfiguration. Standard cable lengths range from 1 to 15 meters, with the 2-meter option ideal for compact setups or short-distance extensions. For enhanced durability in extreme conditions, Mencom offers stainless steel coupling nuts as an optional upgrade (add "-SS" suffix to the part number). The MDC series is part of Mencom’s comprehensive line of M12 connectors, including field-wired, panel-mount, and molded cable assemblies, ensuring compatibility with diverse industrial systems. Key specifications: 4-pole configuration with 5 contact holes in female connectors, 5mm outer diameter, and industry-standard color coding (1=Brown, 2=White, 3=Blue, 4=Black). The cable meets AWM standards and is available in alternative jacket materials like PUR (oil-resistant) or TPE (weld slag-resistant) for specialized applications. Trusted by engineers worldwide, Mencom’s MDC-T-4MFPF-2M delivers consistent performance in factory automation, material handling, and process control systems.
