Thanks for letting me know that the original gauge was 24.

It sure looks like it is. Does anyone with an original Tek 7K extender
confirm that the wires in the custom ribbon cable were 24 gauge except for
the coaxes?

Thanks,

John

I can't remember the precise gauges, but this is what I put together ages
ago when I was making my own extender. Surveyed from a Tek unit.

Note that the wires that take high current are significantly thicker than
the signal wires.

Thanks Craig,

Craig was referring to his spreadsheet with tallies of types of wire used, (but not their wire gauge).
Since an original Tek extender uses 58 thin wires, and only 4 thick wires and 6 coax,
it would speed assembly of flex extenders to use 28 gauge ribbon cables with crimp connectors
plus 4 separate wires that are thicker -- probably 24 gauge.

Can anyone confirm the wire gauge of the thin wires in a Tek original 7K flex extender?
