Overview

Mencom MAC-5FR-2-1M-18 is a 5-pole female straight receptacle with a 1-meter, 18AWG cable rated for 4A current. Designed for front mounting via a 0.5-NPT thread, this aluminum clear anodized connector features a dual keyway and 1/2-20UN2 coupling nut to prevent wiring errors. Unlike MDC (M12) connectors, MAC connectors use a distinct color code for added safety in industrial applications. Available as molded cable assemblies, field-wired connectors, or panel mount receptacles, these plug-and-play solutions support various cable jackets and connector ends to meet application-specific requirements. The MAC series is strategically sized to match MDC connectors while ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure without risk of miswiring. Ideal for automation, robotics, and sensor networks where reliable, error-free connections are critical. The 0.5-NPT front mount design allows for secure installation in enclosures or control panels, while the clear anodized aluminum housing provides corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments.
