Connector that looks like a ps/2 but bigger

[nekomata]

I found this connector on an old keyboard. I want to try to restore it for my friend, though I don't know what kind if connector it is or if there's even an adaptor for it. Anyone got any ideas?

looks like MIDI to me but I'm not very knowledgeable about connectors.

That's is a very old keyboard connector, I don't think they even make adapters for it. Last time I saw that connector was on pentium 2 days

Even earlier. I'd say, 1994-1995 yrs.

Looks like a MIDI or S-Video connector to me.

It is an AT connector.

AT was used before PS/2

PS/2 and AT are both DIN connectors

You can passively adapt that to PS/2 if you desire.

Yeah, the pentium 2 was the last Era of pcs to use it, was replaced with ps/2 connectors by pentium 3/4. Only reason I know the pentium 2 used them still is because that was the first pc I disassembled, got so annoyed at my kb disconnecting every few minutes I took the mobo out and fixed the connector by wrapping copper wire around the loose ground pins to secure the connector to the mobo, and then I had to figure out how to put the pc back together again . That was my first time building a computer

The adapter should work

Thanks guys. Damn, I didn't know it was that old. I don't think I can find any adaptors for that here, but it seems that iI can change the connector to a ps/2

If you are comfortable with splicing wires, and potentially doing some basic soldering, then yeah, you can just lop off the end, and rewire it to a PS/2 connector.

 

Have you checked all your e-tailers that will ship to you? eBay is probably the best source, but even Amazon sells them (at least in some regions).

It's called a DIN connector. Yes, you can use an adapter to go to PS/2 and then another one to USB.

It's old and not used, so I'll take the risk. Sadly I live in Indonesia, where things either don't exist or too expensive
