Twin Coaxial Connectors
The Connex TWINAX connectors are designed for use on IBM systems 34 and 38 installations.
They can interface IBM host-compatible network communications where minimum cross-talk and
balanced circuits are necessary in interconnecting work stations.
TWINAX-polarized key and keyway construction, threaded coupling, 0-200 MHz range, 500 V peak
voltage rating.
Twin-BNC-polarized contact design (one female, one male), 2 stud bayonet coupling, captivated
contacts, 0-100 MHz range, 100 V peak voltage rating.
