Thanks to all who offered sage advice for the 3488A relay card connector...
I agree that if a unit was stripped out of a rack then it is likely that the cable connector was left in the harness and got tossed out.
So it looks like I'll have to make something else as one contributor suggested, once I remove the HP edge connector adaptor...
Of course it is US pitch and nothing easily matches it in the UK.
I'm sure I can adapt something, but it would have been nice to have the real deal.
If anyone has any more of the 44471A (10ch Relay) cards and if the price is right then I'm interested.
Regards to all you wonderful people with more knowledge about such things than I!
Nigel

They must have all been tossed on the "useless cables and unidentifiable objects trash pile" by the liquidators. Not many here in
the US either.
I think figuring the generic edge connector needed is tough with these -- there's no standard high volume connector I've seen like
them...
Maybe figure out an adapter pcb that would go in after removing the HP connectors from the plugin cards....
