Overview

The Mencom Corporation MDCP-8MFP-5M is a shielded MDC cordset designed for robust industrial connectivity. Featuring an M12 coupling nut and a single keyway, these connectors offer a plug-and-play solution for various applications. This specific model is constructed with a yellow PUR (Polyurethane) cable jacket, providing durability and resistance in demanding environments. The cordset has 8 poles and a straight male to straight female configuration, with a cable length of 5 meters. It is rated for 2A current and utilizes nickel-plated brass for its coupling nut, ensuring reliable contact and corrosion resistance. The cable itself is shielded, offering protection against electromagnetic interference, though it is not shielded up to the coupling nut. Mencom Corporation provides a comprehensive range of MDC connectors, including molded cable assemblies, field-wired connectors, panel mount receptacles, and accessories. Options for cable jackets include PVC, PUR, and TPE, as well as Hi-Flex and shielded variants. Receptacles are available in various mounting styles and thread types such as Metric, PG, and NPT, catering to diverse installation needs. The MDCP-8MFP-5M is manufactured in Germany (DE).
