The 4.1-9.5 has been around for 15 years at least, and is the one
properly called mini-DIN. The 4.3-10 is much more recent, and was
developed specifically with ultra low PIM in mind, plus high density
jack fields. The 4.3-10 is what all new cell equipment is and will be
using, especially as we move into 5G.
Either series though is a big upgrade to the N in mechanical robustness.

Is the 4.1-9.5 a new connector. It looks like the chassis jack is the same
size as a SO-239 and N which would make an easy swap. I also found a
4.3-10 chassis jack which has a hole pattern close enough that it may fit.
These Mini-DIN's could be a great upgrade without severely modifying
equipment except I have found few connectors, especially for the 4.1-9.5
that you mentioned. Finding connectors for smaller RG-400 coax is even
more challenging.

## another new connector is the 4.1 - 9.5 connector. Good up to 14 ghz.
Excellent pim.
