There are three connectors in that style, the WECO358, which is
the standard US Bell connector, The Trompeter video connector,
and the mini WECO, aka the WECO438/440A. The trompeter video
and the normal WECO look like they should be compatible, but
they aren't. The Trompeter connector has a narrow center pin
that will not couple with the WECO, and the WECO has a wider
pin that will break the Trompeter. The mini WECO is very small,
and won't interoperate with anything.
The normal 3586B has the WECO439/440A connector in the 75 ohm
position. The OPT1 3586B has the WECO358 connector... which is
actually the normal connector for the US telephone system.

I ordered a BCJ-VWP adapter from Markertek.
A week and $18 later it shows up but does not fit my 3586B.
It is too fat to go into the connector on the HP, and the center
pin is way too fat..
