Overview

The Mencom Corporation MS18M-5CMP-1M is a MIL-SPEC equivalent Size 18, 5-pole male straight cordset designed for industrial power and signal applications requiring reliable, high-integrity connections. This connector features a yellow PVC jacket with foil shielding, providing protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensuring signal integrity in noisy environments. The 1-meter cable length is ideal for short-run installations where space and routing constraints are critical. Key specifications include a 600V voltage rating and 8A current capacity, supporting both power and signal transmission across five conductors (16 AWG). The connector body measures 13.1mm in outer diameter, with a threaded coupling mechanism (1.1250-18UNEF) that delivers a secure, vibration-resistant mating. The MS18M-5CMP-1M is part of Mencom's MIL-SPEC series, offering a 'Plug and Play' solution with pre-wired receptacles and over-molded construction. This eliminates the need for specialized tools like crimp tools or soldering, reducing installation time and complexity. The foil shield enhances durability and resistance to environmental contaminants, while the PVC jacket provides flexibility and resistance to abrasion. Typical applications include industrial machinery, automation systems, robotics, and equipment requiring MIL-SPEC equivalent connectors for reliable performance in demanding environments.
