Does anyone have an NSN for a 5590 male connector that attaches to the end of a cable? I have found them online, for example:

http://www.tacticaleng.com/c25/BA559...nector-p8.html

but, with no NSN, I will have to twist some arms to allow us to purchase them with the GPC card.

I am going to be making a 5590 to USB adapter (actually, quite a few). I know that some are available from TSE Recon and Tactical Engineering, but I see no reason to pay hundreds of dollars for something I can make myself for about $50 in parts.

While I am asking questions, can anyone give me a good NSN for either a 10/3 outdoor rated extension cord, or bulk 10/3 SJ type cable? My research has only turned up 12/3 extension cords. I will admit up front that I don't have a FEDLOG account, and I am still learning the arcane ways of the supply system.
