Subject: [geda-user] newbie needs help with power connectors

This question is not directly related to geda - but I am hoping that folks here
won't mind.

I am trying to get started with designing my own pcb - having never done this
before I am surprised at the number of details involved - like power connectors.

For my board I would like a small consumer style power connector - like found
on small low power low voltage devices. But I am having a hard time finding
the parts. I am sure I am not doing my searches correctly. The
specific kind I want
is a coaxial two connector jack style. Not sure of the size yet.

I am trying to build my BOM at avnet - am I looking at the right place? And
what are those power connectors called? I tried "coaxial power connector" and
power plug. Neither looked good.

Thank you for any help.
