Title: Looking for power and video cord connectors
Post by: carazy on January 09, 2006, 09:07:58 am

I'm looking for a cable or just the ends that will match these spots in the picture.

Post this in the monitor forum and get Ken Layton's opinion.  I'm guessing it requires a .156 connector.  Mouser is a place to get one.

You could probably get one from Bob Roberts as well.

Bob Roberts and arcadeshop.com sell these cable assemblies. If you want the bare connector housings and pins then Mouser Electronics has them.

I see the video one I want http://arcadeshop.com/pics/vidscab.jpg I was assuming with the power if I can just hook it up to a power cord if I had the right connector.

Ask Ken again about the power connector.  You should post the model of your monitor (and a pic) so Ken can determine if it needs an isolation transformer.  It probably will and you would cause damage if you don't use one.

I've posted this to the monitor forum with the questions so I'm wondering if this can get locked or deleted or just ignored :)
