Is this mil or commercial? Are they twisted shielded, or coax? There are of course MIL-C-38999 connectors with coaxial pins. If it is twisted shielded I doubt that a short length of shield termination would cause huge vswr to the intentional differential signal. Especially as a two inch termination is a tenth wavelength at 600 MHz. Likely I don't know enough about your problem.

List-Post: emc-pstc@listserv.ieee.org Date: Sat, Jul 13, 2002, 11:10 AM Hi Ken, I'm open to this, but the cables that pass through ( there could be as many as 10 ), all have their own braids, and are impedance matched. I really don't want to just squish them together and hope it makes good contact all around.... Not sure if I'd change the cables impedance ( they are impedance controlled cables ) at the clamping point.... Cheers, Derek N. Walton Owner, L. F.
