Xmost M12 A-coded male front mount right angle PCB connector provides a detachable cable interface for sensor modules, actuator controllers and industrial automation equipment. Its male A-coded connection mates with a compatible female cable connector, while bent rear contacts connect to the internal circuit board through dip soldering.
The 90-degree PCB contact arrangement suits assemblies where the board connection turns behind the equipment panel. Front fastened mounting secures the connector to the enclosure, combining an external M12 cable interface with internal board termination.
Choose 4, 5, 8 or 12 contacts according to the circuit requirements. Current and voltage ratings vary by pin count, so select the electrical configuration together with the required grounding and shielding options.
Key Features
- Right angle PCB contacts: Provides a 90-degree board connection behind the panel.
- Four contact counts: Choose 4, 5, 8 or 12 pins.
- Male A-coded interface: Mates with compatible M12 female sensor and actuator cable connectors.
- Front fastened mounting: M12 × 1.0 panel thread for the illustrated construction.
- Grounding and shielding choices: Grounded/ungrounded and shielded/unshielded options.
- PCB dip-solder termination: Bent insertion contacts provide the internal circuit-board connection.
