BNC connector with 4 contacts

Feb 07, 2005 8 Replies

Hi,



I'm looking for connectors that fit to a HP10780A. It looks like BNC, but has 4 contacts inside, 2 male and 2 female. Here is a picture:

Does anybody know a manufacturer or distributor for these connectors?



Thanks, Michael



Even though they no longer support it, you might want to get ahold of Agilent tech support. I've had good luck with them on old stuff before.

Hi John,

Have already asked them, they say it's not from them.

My thought before looking at the picture! (It's not Lemo...)

I've only seen those types with two connections inside (used for 2Mbps telecom (E1))....

Hello again,

Maybe you should include "retired HP engineers" in the subject line. They might remember.

BTW, I really like those heavy wooded tripods on your side. They look like the perfect 'nerd barstool'.

Amphenol calls those "twin BNC":

Can't find the "quad BNCs" for you though :-(

I believe that's the same connector Don Lancaster was looking for a couple months ago. I did not see a good response to his query, either. (It's not twinax...)

They were almost certainly made specially for H.P.

If you can find someone who has the manual the supplier should be listed in the parts section.

Agilent may still be able to supply the mating connectors. If not, they may divulge who the manufacturer was.
