i have been looking for military-style electrical 'cannon plug' connectors. they are basically a circular electrical connector with as little as 2-pin and as much as 100-pin. the only retailer i have found wants too much money for them.


i would be paying over $200 for the connectors and plates and that is for a few 5-pin connectors.

has anyone seen these around? inexpensive? must be military-style

Hmmmm can't see a front on view....but I'm guessing this is something like your looking for?:

I think it times out, if it does go to the site and enter in 1308848 as the order code.

Look at an electronic components site and go through Connectors->Multipole etc It helps if you rank them with the highest first as they're expensive so they'll stand out.
