SPARO Connectors

The connectors listed below are for SPAROcables at the South Pole. Some of the cables running between devices require "pigtail" cables to run from breakout boxes to actual equipment. These connectors are also listed, broken down by cable piece. Connectors are gold plated and metal as much as possible.

No spare connectors were ordered for the Data Sys Power box of the Preamp Power box because spare battery boxes were created. It is unlikely that both battery boxes will have faulty connectors.

Cables whose connectors are specified COMPLETELY:

• Cycling Cable
• Sensing Cable
• Data Sys Power -Analog
• Data Sys Power -Digital
• Preamp Power
• He-3 Pressure
• Signal Cables
• Stepper Heater Cable
• Valve Heater Cable
• Data Sys Cabinet Heater
• Optical Fibers

• Preamp Heat Cable
• He-4 Pressure Cable
• Motor Serial Cable
• Gain Control Cable
• (ALL OF THEM)
