Kirchhundem, March 2026. With the Cepex family, MENNEKES offers a versatile and robust range of receptacles designed for environments where maximum safety, flexibility, and durability are essential. Whether in production halls, laboratories, medical facilities, large commercial kitchens, or modern office spaces, Cepex receptacles stand for installations that combine functionality with a clean, uniform design. The product family includes SCHUKO®, CEE, and data port solutions.

Thanks to variants for flush‑mounted, surface‑mounted, and panel‑mounted installations, Cepex provides exceptional flexibility. Its high modularity and well‑designed system architecture allow seamless adaptation to different installation areas and spatial requirements. By combining a flush‑mounted installation box with any Cepex panel‑mounted receptacle, a complete flush‑mounted solution can be created, reducing storage needs and offering maximum configuration freedom. The range also includes a flexible double receptacle that can be equipped with SCHUKO®, CEE, or a combination of both.

Maximum flexibility for professional applications
Cepex receptacles feature generous wiring space, flexible cable entry options, and a secure installation process – even in tight spaces. Available in light grey, pearl white, pure white, white aluminum, and deep black, they blend harmoniously into a wide range of environments and match common duct and installation systems. With protection class IP54, they offer reliable performance in dusty or humid areas.

The Cepex surface‑mounted variants provide particularly convenient and installation‑friendly handling: large wiring compartments, a housing base that can be rotated by 180°, and integrated membranes support easy cable routing and contribute to safe, clean installations across many application areas.

Smart solutions for data and power
Cepex data port receptacles extend the system to include professional network connectivity – ideal for control stations, warehouses, airports, production lines, and laboratory environments. They can be combined with Cepex CEE, SCHUKO® and other modules, achieving protection class IP54 with the cover closed (even with a plug inserted). An integrated safety lock prevents unauthorized access.

The data modules support a wide range of RJ45 and manufacturer‑independent keystones – from Cat.3 to Cat.7 as well as electrical and optical interfaces – making the system extremely versatile and future‑ready.

Cepex – the modern receptacle solution for installation environments that demand more
With this product line, MENNEKES offers a consistent, high‑quality system that combines safety, functionality, and modern design into one modular concept. From dry indoor areas to harsh industrial environments, Cepex enables safe, clean, and durable installations wherever reliable technology is essential.
