Yep, GR once made the best. The GR connector had at least three things
going; as noted hermaphroditic. No need for several sexes. Second, they
are seamless 50 ohms, very very small reflections at the connection.
Third, banana plugs (also a GR idea, I think) fit in the center "post"
of the connector without wrecking anything. GR also made an
hermaphroditic connector good to several GHz before passing into legend.

Neat stuff...did anybody but GR use those hermaphrodite connectors?
At one time, GR was pretty much the only source for a wide range of RF
and microwave test gear. Anything that was going to work with that gear
may have come with the GR connectors. That includes stuff like
attenuators,
cables, and other bits of “lab clutter”. When you checked the box for
the
GR connectors, the price went up quite a bit. That made the gizmos with
the connectors on them a bit more rare than they otherwise would be.

I have
an adapter for them that came with a wide-band amplifier; "delay line"
type, with a whole row of, I think, 6AK5s in it.
