The McKinney QC-RF8 is a heavy-duty, 8-circuit (8-pin) female receptacle designed as part of the ASSA ABLOY ElectroLynx® Quick Connect system. Engineered specifically for access control and remote door monitoring systems, this electrical accessory acts as a critical link to transfer power and data seamlessly across electrified door openings.
By utilizing standardized, plug-and-play Molex connectors, the QC-RF8 eliminates the tedious process of manual hardwiring, wire slicing, and color-matching at the installation site. It is primarily used to terminate, repair, or retrofit wiring paths for McKinney electrified hinges, power transfer devices, and electromechanical locking hardware—ensuring a clean, hidden, and tamper-resistant installation that preserves the aesthetic integrity of architectural openings.
Key Features
-
Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Features a factory-terminated 8-position connector that snaps securely into the male end, drastically reducing field labor time and human error.
-
ElectroLynx® Ecosystem Architecture: Fully standardized to plug into any ASSA ABLOY Group brand's electro-mechanical hardware (such as McKinney hinges, Sargent, Corbin Russwin, or Yale hardware).
-
Tamper-Resistant Security: Fits entirely concealed inside the door or frame cavity, protecting the connection against physical tampering or weather damage.
-
Versatile Circuit Support: Ideal for 4-wire (QC4) and 8-wire (QC8) installations, providing a safe, constant current path for fail-safe/fail-secure locks, request-to-exit (REX) sensors, and latch bolt monitoring.
-
Heavy-Duty Continuity: Designed to seamlessly support low-voltage power distribution, ensuring consistent electrical connectivity through thousands of open/close door cycles.
