Overview

The Mencom MDCM-5FP-3M-SS is a 5-pole Micro-DC (M12) cordset featuring a foil-shielded PVC cable rated for 300V and 4A. This cordset includes a 3-meter yellow PVC AWM jacket with 5 x 22 AWG conductors, providing reliable signal and power transmission in industrial environments. The foil shielding extends to the coupling nut, ensuring consistent EMI/RFI protection while maintaining flexibility and durability. The female straight connector simplifies cable routing in confined spaces, and the stainless steel coupling nut delivers superior corrosion resistance in harsh conditions. The 5.8mm outer diameter cable is rated for operation from -40°C to +105°C, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Standard lengths include 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 15 meters, with custom lengths available upon request. The MDCM-5FP-3M-SS is part of Mencom’s MDC series, which includes molded cable assemblies, field-wired connectors, and panel mount receptacles with various mounting styles and thread types. This cordset is ideal for factory automation, robotics, sensor networks, and other industrial connectivity applications requiring secure, shielded connections with high abrasion and chemical resistance.
