They mention "malleable logarithmic casings" - does anyone know if it is the casing or the logarithms which are malleable?

Ah, I had not thought of that. Maybe they're a third base - the "malleable" logarithm. Hmm, more research is obviously needed - think maybe we can get a grant from the Department of Energy? Saving energy by being more efficient makes it a green project, yes?
Of course, it is all plain now. A malleable logarithm is based on a scale from e to pi, using imaginary numbers.

Thanks. But I *have* at least enough of the plugs, and what I need is the crimper for them. I thought at first that this was showing what I needed down in the corner, but a click there doesn't go beyond
8P8C connectors.
Of course -- this was for a sBus card for multiple RS-232C cables (and the extra pins were only needed for synchronous operation), and I only have a couple of sBus systems still running -- for the moment.
Not the 8P8C (eight pins, eight wire connections). The 4P2C, btw, is used for some phone installations where only the center two pins of the RG-11 connector design are used. (Unless RG-12 happens to be
10P10C -- nope, it is 6P4C according to another of Fuiturelec's pages.) The RJ numbers (I don't know why they used "RG" instead of "RJ" in the above line) don't extend to the 10P10C at the bottom of the first table:
Maybe I could machine up an alternate male half of the dies for the nice AMP crimper for modular connectors with interchangeable dies. The body of the connector fits in the female half of the die set just fine, but the male half only pushes down 8 pins, not the ten needed.
Or -- since I don't really need the outer two pins (I'm not doing synchronous data connections), I could simply pull the outer two pin blades before crimping. The manual for the interface card warns that using a standard 8-pin RG-45 would damage the connectors on the card.
Not really. Most of what they sell can be found elsewhere at better prices. Some items are at retail. I was talking about their descriptions, and edited datasheets not the way the site is designed.
