Xmost M12 C-coded female rear mount PCB socket provides a threaded AC power cable interface for industrial equipment. It accepts a compatible C-coded male connector and connects to the circuit board through straight rear PCB contacts.
Designed for rear fastened installation, this M12 panel mount power socket suits enclosures with a defined panel-to-board position. The rear mount outline should be used when checking mounting clearance and circuit-board placement.
Choose from four contact arrangements, each including PE. Electrical ratings vary by configuration, while shielded and unshielded versions support different equipment shielding requirements.
Key Features
- Rear fastened construction: For housings designed around a rear mount panel power socket.
- Female M12 C-coded interface: Accepts a matching male power cable connector.
- PE contact included: Available with two, three, four or five additional contacts.
- Direct PCB connection: Straight insertion contacts support dip soldering.
- PG9 or M16 × 1.5 mounting: Two panel thread options for enclosure integration.
- Shielding selection: Available in shielded and unshielded versions.
