I've have several of these female jumper cables that  I would like to use to set up a test board but I can't find what they're called and where to buy at a reasonable price male plugs with circuit board mounts and if there is such an item solderable cable ends.  The upper middle one doesn't have an outer shield and I have only one of those.  Thanks in advance
Thanks
Hank

That looks like series "SMB".
These are often found connecting modules within RF test equipment.
The right-angle connectors in the photo are actually easier to wire than are the straight cable connectors.
The unshrouded one looks like someone excised the outer shroud from a normal SMB connector.

Hey Tim
I took out my mag glass and it looks like the outer shield on the middle SMB connector was removed or fell off.  I could see knurled ridge which was for a press fit of the outer collar.  This yellow coax is braided silver double shield  and the center conductor is a solid wire about 0.012" in diameter and outer diameter is about 0.102" using my drill gauge.  I hope this cable and SMBs aren't  75 ohm.  I tried to  get L and C readings on a 30" piece but it's difficult to get a good connection without a male connector.  Will have to sort thru my junk boxes or luck out at next hamfest.  I've included a pic of a piece stripped back anti may be beyond my 82 year old  to make  good connections, but I'll try.  Can anyone ID the coax?

Thanks for Rosenbeger URL.  Good info but I'll have wait to find some on the used market.
