The cable slides over this tiny approximately 1/8" dianeter "stud" on the PEP module.

It is actually a coaxial connection.

The lead has this mini connector on one end and a male BNC on the other.

I only have one lead and need another.

QUESTION: Where to buy the DRBIII lead?

I assume it will be extremely expensive. However, if that mini connector is a standard part, I should be able to source a cable from the various cable/fitting/adapter suppliers.

Thanks
Tom

Yes, I've looked on ebay. Lots of cables but not the right ones.

Mini/Micro Coax connectors have designations like: MCX, MMCX, SMP, SMPM, SMT, SSMA, SMA, SMB, SMC, ....

I suppose I could find dimensioned drawings of the above and then measure the PEP ones and determine what PEP uses. I have found BNC to MCX cables for $7 so there is $$$ to be saved.

I think it is SMB. Am checking....
