Abstract:

This is a proposed design for a new style in-vacuum cable connector utilizing POGO style pin connectors.
It was developed as a replacement for the Might Mouse connectors.
• Be made of UHV compatible materials.
• Be capable of surviving the clean-and-bake process without damage.
• Does not require the mounting brackets to be electrically isolated.
• Utilize existing wire, copper braid in the construction.
• Utilize POGO style pins.
• Minimum complexity / part count.
• Positive position indexing.
• Pins cannot cross when connecting.
• Must be able to manipulate with a single gloved hand.
• 3, 5, 7, 9, 15, and 25 pin versions should all be expansions of the 3-pin design
• Not a high vibration/shock environment.
