My C.A.T.S. rotator came with an Amphenol connector on the rotor and
a kit for the cable end ( the jones plug is on the box end ).

I spent about ten minutes with the Amphenol kit before giving up and
installing one of the trailer connector pairs that I bought from Radio Works
a few years ago. 12 volts may be the application but I would feel safe
using them at 24, 48, or even 240 vac.  Once mated, I wrap the union with
electrical tape and then apply a coat of GE silicon II.
