As with any home improvement project, the cost of refinishing hardwood floors varies based on location, floor material, floor condition and other factors. The average cost to refinish hardwood floors is $970 to $1,250 per 300 square feet -- the average reported size of a kitchen in 2012.That cost can easily rise depending on the specific floors, their condition and extra enhancements. The cost to install a wood floor is about $4,000 -- $2,000 more than refinishing. 2  Age: The age of your floor can be a huge factor, especially if you only installed it a few years ago.
Centronics Connectors The 36-pin Centronics connector is commonly used for parallel printer interfaces. The 50-pin connector is often used for external SCSI interfaces.Here's a look at the female 36-pin Centronics connector, as viewed from the pin side (not the solder side).The female connector is mounted on the printer, the male connector is used for the printer cable.). Here's a look at the male and female 50-pin Centronics connectors, as viewed from the pin side (not the solder side). (The female connector is usually mounted on the device, the male connector on the cable.).
Fiber optic connectors are unique. Fiber cables transmit pulses of light instead of electrical signals, so the terminations must be much more precise. Instead of merely allowing pins to make metal-to-metal contact, fiber optic connectors must align microscopic glass fibers perfectly in order to allow for communication. While there are many different types of fiber connectors, they share similar design characteristics. Simplex vs. duplex: Simplex means 1 connector per end while duplex means 2 connectors per end. There are three major components of a fiber connector: the ferrule, the connector body, and the coupling mechanism.
