[AMPS] Hi Power Connectors

[Peter_Chadwick@mitel.com (Peter Chadwick)]

Ian says:

>the MHV and SHV series are both rated at 10A DC. 

The maximum contact resistances quoted give 350mW dissipation in the connector
at that, with a current density of 1940 amps/sq. inch. Which may seem a lot, but
RG213 at that current density is only carrying 1747 watts at 1:1 SWR!

Guess I'm too conservative...........
