Greetings:
I have a cable problem that I sincerely hope someone can help me with.
The problem->
In trying to connect an external display device "in line" between a
DEC 3000/600 and the monitor, we've run smack into a brick wall. The
TURBOChannel display card in all of our 3000/600 boxes has a very odd
connector and no one seems to even know what to call it let alone
provide an adaptor for it.
The connector has 3 "coaxial sockets" in a D-type connector, nothing more.
The three are evenly spaced and fit inside a D-type connector that
appears to be about the size of a DB15 connector. Has ANYONE ever found
either:
1) a name for this type of connector
2) a company that sells adaptors for it (I'm looking for BNC connectors
on the other end).
In the archives I noted one such request for help on this topic but no
summary was ever posted. For any of you DEC folks, the part number of
the cable is BC29G-09. If you have any info or even any hints of where
to go for answers, I'd be most appreciative. The DEC folks I talked to
spent 30 minutes researching but came up dry.
TIA,
Cary Talbot
