Abstract

A multi-channel signal acquisition probe has a ribbon cable with ganged coaxial signal cables. The coaxial signal cables are separated into individual cables at one end of the ribbon cable. A junction box is mounted the ribbon cable with the individual cables extending through apertures in a front face of the junction box. An electrically conductive terminal is disposed in the junction box and extends into openings in opposing sides of the junction box. The electrically conductive terminal is electrically coupled to each outer shielding conductor of the signal cables. The free ends of each of the individual signal cables has a probing head. A terminal connector is disposed on the other end of the ribbon cable.
