Can anyone help identify this electronics connector? This is on a medical
instrument (Topcon retinal camera, model TRC-50EX) from the 1990s:

I thought it was some custom item, but then I saw something similar to the
female side on a Motorola walkie-talkie recently.



Ask on news:sci.electronics.design. There are some people there that
work in medical electronics design.


Doesn't ring a bell here. It almost looks like a custom order design.
The only ZIF connector type we used and occasionally still use is the
ITT/Cannon style with sideways-engaging contacts. Nowadays I try to stay
away from expensive specialty connectors.

Richard, if you absolutely need this style you could send the picture to
several large manufacturers such as Tyco.
