Looking for the manufacturer and (praying) the series of this connector:

http://oi57.tinypic.com/w7luea.jpg

http://oi57.tinypic.com/2hylbub.jpg

It is not proprietary‹it was used to connect 2 old pieces of equipment much
older than this connector. 

Ideas?

Thanks.

DaveC-

It looks like a Jones plug to me. Check out

<http://www.cinch.com/products/misc-commercial/jones-plugs-sockets/series
-2400-with-angle-bracket>.

You may not need the angle-bracket version and the size may not be
right, but at least it is a starting point.

I think those are known as "Jones Connectors", or perhaps "Cinch
Connectors". I don't know about this specific part but try here:

Yup! Cinch Jones, or Jones as you indicated.
Been 40 or so years since they were (sort-of) common.
Try Mouser or DigiKey first.

Probably a Jones plug, these days made by Cinch. Probably part of the
2400 series - the 300 series is smaller overall and doesn't have that
ground/alignment pin in the 4-prong size. How to tell: the housing of a
2400 series 4-pin plug will be about 1.125" x 1.062" (28.6 x 27 mm), and
the housing of a 300-series 4-pin plug will be about 0.786" x 0.724" (20
mm x 18.4 mm).

Top level at
http://www.cinch.com/products/misc-commercial/jones-plugs-sockets

PDF catalog for both 300 and 2400 series at
http://www.cinch.com/pdfs/MiscCommercial_Catalog.pdf

The plugs you have are probably P-2404-CCT or P-2404H-CCT (RoHS). The
same thing except as a cable-mount socket would be S-2404-CCT or
S2404H-CCT. There are many variations on the plugs and sockets: cable
mount, panel mount, etc.
http://www.cinch.com/products/misc-commercial/jones-plugs-sockets/series-2400-with-hood-180-clamp

Newark/Element 14 stocks the 2400 series in small quantities. This is
the RoHS version of the plug you have, for US$11 quantity one:
http://www.newark.com/cinch/p-2404h-cct/plug-socket-connector-plug-4pos/dp/11M5814
They don't seem to have the S2404H-CCT in stock. They do stock a
panel-mount mating connector, S2404H-AB, for US$7 quantity one:
http://www.newark.com/cinch/s-2404h-ab/plug-socket-connector-socket-4pos/dp/12M1374

Mouser stocks the 300 series but not the 2400 series.

Standard disclaimers apply: I don't get money or other consideration
from any companies mentioned.

Better bet, Allied or Newark. They've had those lines in their catalog
for a better part of a century.

That was the case decades ago for some of the slow moving stuff at your
local electroinc parts store. The ones with wooden floors, that had a
mix of WWII surplus, hobby electronics, maybe some used ham equipment and
all kinds of parts, just waiting in case someone asked for them.

I've seen odd items of industrial machinery that use them.
Come to think of it, a client of mine still uses DOS !!!

I actually know a store similar (except with concrete floors). Guy
bought an old line electronics part store when the owner of THAT one hit
70 years old, about 15 years ago ...

And currently no WWII surplus.

But close.
