	These are the triax connectors on those panels.  They should be male connectors, which will mate with the female end of the triax cable while the male end of the cable goes to the truck.  I've included this extreme closeup because we had a difference of opinion as to whether these actually are male connectors.  If they aren't, we'll have to use some sort of adapter.  Video guys, what do you think? (TEXT CONTINUED BELOW) Matt Wasilco responds, in part:  Those triax are female at the I/O.  This is bad.  There is no TV truck in the world that carries that many triax turnarounds.  Pitt is going to have to make the changes themselves.  I wish them luck.  What sex are the triaxes on the arena floor?  Those should be females. To which I respond:  As far as I know, the connectors on the arena floor are okay.  It appears that every panel-mount connector in the bulding is female. We could tell that all the audio connectors are female, so we'll have to use turnarounds. 2009 update:  In practice, we mostly avoid using this impractical connector panel and instead run cables all the way from the truck to the arena floor. 2012 update:  A "Remote Unit Form" from ESPN Regional Television advises that the house {i.e., the Petersen Events Center) "provides triax turnarounds because the triax was installed wrong."
