[ukvac] [Tech] Connectors - name them.
Hi,

Before I make a big order can someone in the know please confirm the
following for me.

Are the connectors used on :

gauntlet (for power)
namco super pac / mappy and dig dug (for power and video)

the connectors known as AMP mate and lock?

Also are the connectors that I need Male? (because the connectors on
the board apear to have female plastic but with male pins.

So do I need Male plastics with female pins or what ?

Thanks in advance

Luke

Ampex Mate N Lok for definate. As far as the male / female bit goes I
believe you go by the pins not the housing so you would be looking for
female...

Didn't we decide that RS still do them, but by a different manufacturer
and no longer listed under "Ampex Mate N Lok"??

I found some by doing the "gallery" list bit with all the pictures...

Not being awkward here I truly can't remember if we agreed they were the
ones or not!

didn't fit - the shaped plugs were pointing the wrong way :((

CPC still sell them as "Mate N Lok" and they arent too dear, so why f..k

Ummm, because I'm sure CPC didn't have a nice online catalogue when I
last looked like they do now, and RS is only a half hour drive away :eek:)

Hi,

The male / female refers to the plastic housing. You can then fit male
or female pins to the housing which are bought separately. I have all of
these in stock.
