mtm to sds7 connector

mtm to sds7 connector

2014-05-21 by alfpaches@...

Hi guys!

Somebody knows if the connector to link the mtm to sds7 was the same type in both sides?. I mean, 10 male pins in both sides of the wire.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, they are the same (female, 10 pins on the machines so male on the
cable). But I cannot confirm if they're pin to pin or mirrored since my
cable is buried deep in the closet with the selector pad.

Thanks, Jesper!

Sadly, it seems to be there´s no way to find a replacement for this kind of ten pin male connector nowadays. :(
If I´m wrong about that, please let me know.

Thanks Alan!

But the problem is that it seems to be there´s no replacement fot this kind of 10 pin connector nowadays.
I ask to my tech if he could to make a connector wire to me but he hasn´t found a 10 pin male connector anywhere.

Unless they can be found (many electronics store have more than
advertised), you can either make your own (messy, but works) or replace
the socket with something more modern.

The connectors are readily available but expensive - like $20 each. Add in the price of 10 conductor cabling and you're looking at ~$60 per cable in parts alone. If there's enough interest I'd be glad to make some.
