M12 S-coded female rear mount socket connects a compatible external male power cable connector to the equipment’s internal AC wiring. Select the rear fastened version when the panel design provides mounting access and clearance for the rear hardware.
Solder and crimp termination versions support different harness assembly methods. Choose an unwired socket for termination during production or a pre-wired version with a lead length suited to the internal connection point.
Both contact arrangements include protective earth. The 2+PE version provides two circuit contacts and PE; the 3+PE version provides three circuit contacts and PE. Match the arrangement to the equipment schematic and mating connector.
Key Features
