Ah, I always thought it was because of the pair
of connectors you had
to hook up to the 5250 terminals.
Googling around, I found a good big picture of a Twinax female->female
connector:

And a decent picture of the associated male Twinax terminator:

That's Twinax... ;-)
Quite often nowadays, Twinax is run on pins 4 & 5 of an Ethernet
cable, and have a Twinax Balun on either end...
