M12 Y-Coded Male Rear Mount PCB Hybrid Connector

Xmost M12 Y-coded male rear mount PCB connector links an external hybrid cable assembly to the equipment’s internal circuit board. Its Y-coded interface combines separate Ethernet signal and power contacts and mates with a matching female connector of the same configuration.

Designed for rear fastened installation, this shielded M12 panel mount connector uses straight contacts for PCB dip soldering. The rear mount outline defines the dimensions needed to check panel clearance and circuit-board placement.

Y3 provides four signal contacts and two power contacts, with a 12 A power-contact rating. Y4 provides four signal contacts and four power contacts, with a 6 A power-contact rating. Both configurations have a 0.5 A signal-contact rating.

Key Features

Combined signal and power connection: One Y-coded hybrid interface for Ethernet and power circuits.
Two contact arrangements: Y3 with 4+2 contacts or Y4 with 4+4 contacts.
Rear fastened construction: For housings designed around a rear mount panel connector.
Straight PCB contacts: Supports direct board insertion and dip soldering.
Shielded interface: Integrates into the equipment’s hybrid cable shielding arrangement.
Separate electrical ratings: Power and signal contacts have different current limits.
