That was such a great Idea Brian, I ordered three sets last night. It will help from putting cables in wrong along with Michael Herman' s recommendation to label your cables. I also put a spot of white paint on the key side of my RA and DEC plugs to keep
me from plugging them in wrong. " A cheap answer to prevent a expensive fix" HAPPY SKIES and good hunting.

i looked for worm dust blocker, no products :)
but my environment isn't that dusty, it's more for doing whatever we can to maximize longevity.
We originally bought these for the computer ports, but I saw it worked on gemini too
