Abstract
A coupler for connecting two seismic streamer sections together consists of a two-part hollow quick-disconnect fitting. The fitting has an internal diameter sufficient to contain a multicontact connector strip for electrically interconnecting the signal wires from the two streamer sections. When assembled the two parts of the housing are non-rotatable with respect to each other.
