What, did somebody cut it off?

nah; just sold without it. It’s the SDL connector. I didn’t read well enough.

I hope to find a connector myself and create my own cable perhaps. I’m not a vintage freak, so I’m happy with this alternative. Original cables are hard to find, or expensive, or both when it comes to duties.

https://www.pckeyboard.com/page/category/Cables should have you covered. If you insist on DIY'ing that cable Digikey (and likely other similar component distributors) have the connectors in stock for a few dollars each.

cheers! I saw it, as a good alternative. But this is in the US, and I’m in EU. I will have this as a last resort. Digikey and Mouser I can order from, so that’s a perfect option! choker, sleeves, a cat cable and some connectors. PS/2 and a convertor. I still got a PS/2 connector on board 💪🏻
