Overview

Mencom MDCP-8FP-6M-R is an 8-pole Micro-DC (MDC) cordset featuring a female right-angle M12 connector with a 6-meter PUR-jacketed shielded cable. This cordset is rated for 2A at 60V (or 30V) and supports signal and power transmission in industrial environments where chemical resistance and durability are critical. The nickel-plated brass coupling nut with M12 thread and single keyway ensures secure mating and prevents misalignment during installation. The PUR jacket provides excellent resistance to oils, greases, cutting fluids, and abrasion, making it ideal for factory automation, robotics, machinery, and processing plants. The cable is 6 meters long with an outer diameter range of 4-8 mm, designed for enhanced noise immunity in industrial settings. The black color and compact right-angle design optimize space utilization in tight installations. This cordset is part of Mencom’s MDC series, which includes 6, 8, 10, and 12-pole configurations with standard lengths of 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 15 meters. The shielded design with foil shielding provides reliable performance in demanding conditions. The MDCP-8FP-6M-R is compatible with Mencom’s MDC panel mount receptacles and accessories, supporting both shielded and unshielded configurations. Operating temperature range is -40°C to +80°C. The 8-pole configuration allows for multiple signal and power connections in a single compact connector, suitable for low-power signal and control applications common in automation and sensor networks.
