Soundtraxx DCC Mobile Decoders MC1Z102P6
SoundTraxx DCC Mobile Decoders – MC1Z102P6 are compact, non-sound motor decoders designed for smooth DCC speed control and reliable lighting functions in locomotives that use a 6-pin (NEM651) decoder interface. The MC1Z102P6 is an excellent choice for upgrading small or space-constrained models to DCC without adding onboard sound.
Non-Sound DCC Motor & Lighting Decoder
The MC1Z102P6 is a mobile (non-sound) decoder, meaning it provides motor and lighting control only. If you are looking for sound, explore Tsunami2 digital sound decoders, Econami digital sound decoders, or Blunami digital sound decoders instead.
6-Pin (NEM651) Plug-In Interface
The MC1Z102P6 is designed for locomotives equipped with a factory 6-pin NEM651 socket, allowing a simple plug-in installation without full hard-wiring. This makes it a popular choice for N scale and smaller HO scale locomotives that support the 6-pin standard.
Smooth Motor Control & Function Outputs
SoundTraxx mobile decoders are engineered for consistent motor response, smooth starts, and dependable low-speed performance. The MC1Z102P6 also supports lighting function outputs for headlight control and additional lighting features depending on the locomotive’s wiring and lighting design.
Part of the SoundTraxx Mobile Decoder Line
This MC1Z102P6 collection is part of our broader SoundTraxx DCC Mobile Decoders lineup. If your locomotive uses a different interface or requires a different footprint, browse other formats such as MC1H104P21, MC1Z102SQ, MC1H102P8, MC2H104AT, MC2H104OP, or MC2H104P9.
Installation Accessories & Wiring Support
For clean installs and reliable connections, consider using SoundTraxx installation accessories, wiring aids, and decoder wire. These products help simplify DCC upgrades in compact locomotive shells.
