Xmost M12 L-coded male straight power cable connector provides a shielded DC power connection for equipment with a matching L-coded female interface. Its single-ended molded construction combines the male connector and cable into a preassembled assembly.
The straight cable exit directs the cable along the mating axis. M12 × 1.0 screw locking secures the connection to the mating connector.
The catalog lists 16 A and 63 V ratings, with 3-pin, 4-pin and 5-pin contact arrangements. Options include versions with functional earth contacts and versions without an earth contact. PVC and PUR cable options are listed in 1 m and 3 m lengths.

Applications
Suggested applications for this M12 L-coded male straight DC power connector include:
- Industrial automation equipment: DC supply connections to compatible L-coded female interfaces.
- Distributed I/O modules: Power wiring to modules with matching connector arrangements.
- Modular machinery: Detachable DC power connections between compatible equipment sections.
- Axial cable-routing layouts: Installations with clearance for the cable to exit directly behind the connector.
Select the contact configuration according to the equipment’s voltage, current and functional earth requirements.
Selection and Ordering
Specify the contact arrangement, including whether a functional earth contact is required. Select the PVC or PUR cable jacket, cable length and corresponding straight male part number from the catalog.
Match the L-coded interface and pin assignment to the equipment. Follow the male connector’s front-view pin diagram and wire-color assignment, and maintain the specified shield connection during installation.
