[comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt] Looking for weird RS232 connectors for RT

jmiller@bgsuvax.UUCP (Jim Miller) (05/04/91)

Hello everyone,
    I am doing some consulting work for a company that has a PC/RT.  I am
trying to find the connectors to go into the 8 port RS232 distribution
boxes.  These are the square connectors that have a metal hood and the
10-pin ends. The connector looks like this: 


                                     |||||
                                    |||||   <---- cable 
                                   |||||
                            /--------------/
                           /              / |
                          /              /  /
                         /              /  /
                        /              /  /
			---------------  / 
			|  . . . . .  | /
			|| . . . . . ||/
			 -------------

Does anyone know of a part number and/or supplier for these babies?  I
am unable to find them in any of the catalogs I have looked at.

E-mail responses will be fine. 
Thanks in advance!
Jim

These are the same parts as the RS/6000 uses. And if I look carefully
on my RT I get IBM PN 59F3740, EC C26528B

If you are using this with terminal, don't forget the "Terminal Interposer" (ibm-speak for null modem adaptor) PN 58F2861, EC: C26013

Enjoy...
