From: mook johnson on 29 Apr 2010 19:30 Gents, I looking for a consultant that can assist in the design of a custom military style connector with controlled characteristic impedance and insertion loss between two terminals in the 1MHz - 20MHz frequency range. This connector is special because is the application so an off the shelf component will not work. Any leads where I can start looking for such a consultant? thanks

They are the pros when it comes to mil connectors and AFAIK they do custom designs, or at least used to: http://www.deutsch.net/deutsch-contact.aspx?page=8#United%20States -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam.

Most any mil connector will be "matched" to any impedance at 20 MHz. Wavelength is 15 meters! John

Doesn't everyone absolutely *hate* it when a maker of a widget purposely with malice and forethought design something that cannot be fixed or repaired unless the user treks back to the evil maker? An RCA phono type connector is almost good enough, a BNC certainly fits. |
