All, I operate two ThermoFinnigan DeltaVPlus systems, and would like to move the Isodat PC's farther from the MS's than the supplied fiber optic cable will permit. I've searched all over the web for cables with these terminations, checked with our computer support group, contacted tech support at Thermo, and am still coming up with nothing. [Interestingly, the single ends (as opposed to duplexed end) exactly match (to the extent that memory allows) the connector used on the VG Autospec (vintage 1992) that we sold last year... perhaps this is an obsolete item that Thermo has and is using up? ] Has anyone found a supplier for these cables, or even been able to determine a name or type for the terminations?
