I just kind of like it. Connector inspections -- something every geophysicist learns to be anal retentive about if they last long enough.

What kind of connector is this for?
They are mil spec outdoor connectors for signalling cables. In a geophysics context, we use them to connect a line of sensors (things like seismic sensors or similar). It's a $200 connector on a $2000 cable.
I've seen them on JCBs connecting two different wiring harnesses together, but I think they're just general use ones designed by a particular supplier.
