Description

While we did receive a few cables for EKSOS, many of them are missing, so I am looking for suitable alternative cables.

  • EKSOS shelf DC power connector is confirmed to be a TE 350766-1 (contacts for 2.5mm2 wire: 640310-3)
  • EKSOS NCU E1 connector is almost a Harting 09232326824. Almost in that the clip-on frame has some notches, so the clip-on guide would have to be removed.
  • EKSOS POTS/ISDN line card subscriber line conncetor is not a typical 32pin 3-row DIN "C" connector. While both the EKSOS and this connector have pins every second position in the outer two rows, the order is exactly reversed: The standard DIN Connector has pins where EKSOS has none, and vice versa. A 64pos DIN C connector should work, assuming one then simply doesn't use every second pin present.

The original manfacturer of those connectors (Perlos corporation of Joensuu, Finland) sold the connector business to Valuukumpu/M2 LTD in 2007

Cambridge Electronics seems to be selling compatible connectors for at least some configurations, using seemingly the same retention lock / frame construction as featured on the EKSOS units.
