| [Answered] Which style connectors are used on a Trueposition GPSDO board? |
| (1/1) |
| rbm:
I'm selecting pre-made cables for patching the antenna, and 10 MHz / 1PPS outputs on a TruePosition GPSDO board to panel-mount BNC connectors on my enclosure. I have the later model board with its part number beginning with 111603. I want to make sure that I am getting the right connectors, so anyone who has built this board into an enclosure, can you please confirm this information for me?

I don't know what they are but Ive successfully used MCX connectors with them "in an unsupported manner" |

Thanks, cdev. I'm basing my list on info that was provided in the Packrat PDF file, but I have doubts. Don't get me wrong; It's a great document and I trust it. I just want to verify the information in it. |

If you know the proper plug is right, get that. I just found the MCX, which I already had, worked okay- but its not the proper plug. Its ugly, its very ugly, but its available and should last if you enclose the device and don't repeatedly remove/insert them. Because MCX connectors are really delicate. Not quite as bad as u.fl connectors but close. |
