Xmost M12 A-coded female front mount right angle PCB socket provides a panel interface between an external male cable connector and internal circuit-board electronics. Its female A-coded connection accepts a compatible sensor or actuator cable, while bent contacts provide PCB dip-solder termination.
The front fastened socket combines M12 × 1.0 panel mounting with a 90-degree board connection. This construction suits equipment where the PCB position requires the contacts to turn behind the panel rather than extend straight back.
Four contact counts are available, with different current and voltage ratings. Select the required pin count, grounding construction and shielding option to match the equipment interface.
Key Features
- Female A-coded connection: Accepts compatible M12 male sensor and actuator cable connectors.
- 90-degree PCB termination: Bent contacts connect the panel socket to the internal board.
- 4 / 5 / 8 / 12-pin options: Four contact arrangements for different circuit requirements.
- Front fastened construction: M12 × 1.0 panel mounting.
- Grounding options: Grounded and ungrounded versions available.
- Shielding selection: Choose shielded or unshielded construction.
