That didn't come through for people on the list; I have posted it here: http://ana-3.lcs.mit.edu/~jnc/tech/pdp11/jpg/tmp/dec_connectors.jpg so everyone can see his connectors. > Looking at the TE.com catalog, the picture for 1-480273-0 does not match > my DD11-DF connector Actually, the 1-480273-0 is _exactly_ the unit DEC used; I looked at the power distribution panel from a BA11-K, and that's what it uses. (I'm too burned out to look at the engineering drawings and get the part number to confirm; I'll do that 'soon'.) I took a picture of the male shells, and added it to the CHWiki page (I'll add the females tomorrow). The detail of the 6-pin one didn't show up too well, so I took another closeup of just it, here: https://gunkies.org/wiki/File:DECPwrConnMaleSml.jpg Your 15-pin is the same as mine (the part number matches). Your 6-pin has 'wings' on the side (these prevent it pulling through when placed in a hole in sheet metal); the 6-pin DEC used has little right-angle arms, just like the ones on the 15-pin, to brace it in place. They are compatible, though, I think; a female shell that will take one probably will take the other. Noel
