Soundtraxx DCC Mobile Decoderr MC1H102P8
SoundTraxx DCC Mobile Decoders – MC1H102P8 are non-sound motor decoders designed for smooth DCC speed control and reliable lighting functions using a standard 8-pin (NMRA) interface. The MC1H102P8 is an excellent choice for upgrading DCC-ready locomotives where sound is not required, but dependable motor performance and lighting control are essential.
Non-Sound DCC Motor & Lighting Decoder
The MC1H102P8 is a mobile (non-sound) decoder, meaning it controls motor speed, direction, and lighting functions without generating onboard sound. If you are looking for sound-equipped decoders instead, explore Tsunami2 digital sound decoders, Econami digital sound decoders, or Blunami digital sound decoders.
8-Pin (NMRA) Plug-In Installation
The MC1H102P8 uses the widely adopted 8-pin NMRA interface, making it compatible with many HO scale and similar DCC-ready locomotives. This plug-in format allows a straightforward installation without the complexity of a full hard-wire decoder, while still providing solid performance and flexibility.
Smooth Motor Control & Function Outputs
SoundTraxx mobile decoders are engineered for consistent motor response, smooth starts, and dependable low-speed operation. The MC1H102P8 supports lighting and function outputs for headlight control and additional lighting effects depending on your locomotive’s wiring and lighting design.
