Hi Chris,
It's not proprietary, It's a stock Fischer connector. Check the archive (possibly time nut too) for the part number.

As to the proprietary probe connector on these - instead of trying to find
the correct connector and fabricate probes, has anyone just replaced the
input panel and fabricated a new one with standard banana plugs? Thinking of
buying one because I can't afford a 3458a, but that probe jack is
ridiculous. I think that'd be the first thing I would do to it after
verifying it worked properly. Is there some reason this hasn't been done?
What was the thinking behind that design besides holding you hostage and
forcing you to buy all your probes from them as well?

 

Thanks,

Chris Erickson
