I just kind of like it. Connector inspections -- something every geophysicist learns to be anal retentive about if they last long enough.

What kind of connector is this for?

[–] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 6 points 7 months ago

They are mil spec outdoor connectors for signalling cables. In a geophysics context, we use them to connect a line of sensors (things like seismic sensors or similar). It's a $200 connector on a $2000 cable.

I've seen them on JCBs connecting two different wiring harnesses together, but I think they're just general use ones designed by a particular supplier.
