Looking for either of the following:

Two or more Lemo FFA-1S-306-CL**Z connectors
A Tektronix 012-0648-00 (tel:012-0648-00) logic interface cable

The cable connects a 7L13 spectrum analyzer to a TR502 tracking generator. It has two of the Lemo connectors attached. If all else fails I can build a cable...just need a couple of the Lemo units.

Seems to be all over ebay (at a significantly high price, oww).

Looks like you're Finding Lemo.

Ask Disney, they might know.

Not the ones I need, unfortunately. :wall:

Post a picture so the uneducated filthy on the Island (ME) can see what they look like.

There aren't a lot of images available online, so I snagged the best one I could.

Notice the part nomenclature:

"FFA" is the series;
"1S" is the OD of the shell/ID of the jack;
"306" is a 6-pin stepped (half moon) configuration.

Getting the correct diameter parts at less than astronomical prices is proving...challenging.

Do you know of anybody else that makes that series of connector?

Sure - company in China. Sells on eBay - $20 per connector; $23 per connector for shipping. This is a part which weighs an ounce max.

Can you build a cheaper cable by substituting connectors of equal capability?

Problem is...I don't want to hack up the front panels of either the spectrum analyzer or the tracking generator - and it's a tight fit in both with regards to available space.

There isn't another workable alternative that I'm aware of.
