Overview

The Mencom Corporation MDCM-4MP-5M is a shielded Micro-DC (M12) cordset engineered for reliable industrial connectivity in demanding environments. This 4-pole, male straight connector features a 5-meter yellow PVC cable with foil shielding, providing robust protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensuring signal integrity in high-noise applications. The nickel-plated brass coupling nut delivers secure, corrosion-resistant connections, while the single keyway design enables straightforward plug-and-play integration with compatible MDC receptacles and panel mounts. Key specifications include a 4A current rating at 300V, operating temperatures from -40°C to +105°C, and an IP69 rating for resistance to water, dust, and high-pressure cleaning. The 22 AWG conductors (4 x 22 AWG) are color-coded (Brown, White, Blue, Black) for easy identification and wiring. The 5.8mm outer diameter (OD) cable is industry-standard PVC, offering durability and flexibility in harsh industrial settings. Designed for use in automation, robotics, and control systems, this cordset is ideal for connecting sensors, actuators, and other field devices to controllers or I/O modules. Mencom’s MDC series is widely adopted in manufacturing, food processing, and automotive applications where reliable, high-integrity connections are critical. The shielded design minimizes signal degradation, making it suitable for applications requiring stable data transmission. Mencom provides a comprehensive range of MDC solutions, including field-wired connectors, panel mount receptacles, and accessories, ensuring compatibility with diverse industrial equipment. For custom lengths or alternative jacket materials (PUR, TPE), consult Mencom’s factory for tailored solutions.
