MCOM8M Micro Circular Overmould Connector — Overview

The MCOM8M is an 8-contact Micro Circular overmould subsea connector, male (pins) face, wet-mateable and rated to 10 A per contact (50 A per connector) at 7,000 m working depth. It is moulded directly onto the customer cable, giving a permanent, maintenance-free cable entry.

8 Contacts 600 V AC/DC 10 A per Contact 7,000 m Depth 500+ Wet Matings IP68

Key Design Features

  • Wet-mateable: mate and demate in seawater; each contact carries its own moulded O-ring seal, so a single seal failure does not flood the connector.
  • SubConn Compatible: identical face geometry, contact pitch and 7/16-20 UNF-2A thread, so it retrofits existing SubConn panels and harnesses without re-machining.
  • Gold-plated contacts: brass UNS-C36000 contacts hold contact resistance below 0.01 Ω across the full 500-cycle life.
  • 10 A per contact: rated current with a 50 A connector limit for the 8-contact shell.
  • Pressure qualified: 1,400 bar mated design depth, 800 bar open face, so the face survives handling and storage unmated.
  • Overmould body: moulded directly onto the customer cable for maximum pull strength and cable-entry integrity.

InterchangeabilitySubConn Compatible — MCBH / MCIL / MCOM series; also interchangeable with SeaCon and Burton micro circular equivalents

Typical Applications

Payload harness ends, multi-signal cable terminations, permanent moulded joints where pull strength matters.

Notes for Selection

The overmould body is moulded directly onto the customer cable, removing the mechanical crimp joint and giving the highest pull strength and cable-entry integrity in the range. The 3 in (7 cm) PTFE leads shown are the factory pigtail used before moulding.
