Replacement connector for WRT54G

Could anyone give me a source where I could obtain a replacement
RP-TNC PCB mount jack for a WRT54G in the US. It is the jack that is
only mounted to the circuit board not the one with a coax coming off
of it. I accidently dropped it to concrete and the impact damaged one
of the antenna connectors. After pulling the router apart it looks to
be a fairly simple part to replace.

TIA

Try www.digikey.com.

I have used this company for years and the best is that they will sell
you one part. The minimum handling cost becomes minor when you do not
have to buy 1,000 pieces.

The connector comes from various sources. Mine has a "WY" stamped on
the top. It's apparently a manufacturers name, but I can't figure out
the abrev.

Officially, the connector is a "Reverse Polarized TNC, right angle
bulkhead, PCB mount."

The connector is made by Amphenol #31-5688. See:

at the very bottom.

It's carried by Mouser for $9.66, but there's a 500 piece minimum.
It's also a special order which will take some time. You probably
don't need 500 pcs anyway.

Nothing at Digikey.

Ahah. Newark has it for $15.44 with no minimum.

Google shows other vendors, but they're mostly surplus dealers that do
not want to sell in small quantities.
