L-Com 8-Pole X-Code M12 Mold Connectors
L-Com 8-Pole X-Code M12 Mold Connectors are shielded Ethernet connectivity solutions designed for direct cable termination using solder cups. The connector family includes both female (M128XF-MLD) and male (M128XM-MLD) versions and supports Industrial Ethernet installations that require rugged, field-terminated connectivity. These connectors can be overmolded or finished with heat-shrink for durable cable assemblies. The X-code design supports twisted-pair Ethernet applications and is suitable for up to Category 6A and Category 7 cabling, including 10Gb four-pair Ethernet networks. A nickel-plated shield helps provide reliable signal integrity, while the connectors achieve IP67 protection when properly mated. L-Com M12 8 Position X-Code Mold Connectors are well-suited for industrial Ethernet, sensors, actuators, and general I/O connectivity requirements.
