The
new NEWPORT® HGST low noise connectors are designed to provide
easy connection of ground wires to NEWPORT® probes and extension
wires. The drain wire of a 20 AWG twisted shield cable or
the shield of the overbraided wire is crimped and held in
place by the HGST’s internal hardware. The HGST has excellent
thermal and electrical characteristics to assure high accuracy.
Each connector includes a HCP-L and HCP-HGST write-on window.
An external ground strap is available to maintain the electrical
connection of the ground wire and strengthen the mechanical
link between connectors. Ground straps also maintain the electrical
contact through the connector, protecting against electrical
noise erorrs.
Each connector supplied with write-on window for
connector face and sides. The optional ground strap
replaces the side windows and maintains the electrical
connection through the connector pair.
Combination
screws work with both standard and Phillips screwdrivers,
even a coin!
