what the name of this connector?

Easier to reply if you provide a picture of the socket and/or plug to see the number and shape of pins.

I can imagine a number of possible connectors that look like that from the outside.

My first guess was a TRS. But we need to see the pointy end.

First I thought it was a Neutrik, but it seems a power connector, not signal or loudspeaker.

I was thinking it could be a ps/2 port at first, but it is impossible to say. A few PSU's sometimes use weird standards like that.

Don't know the name of the connector, but the device is a Mark Levinson No.28L Preamplifier. (or something close)

If I were feeling waggish, I'd say George. Seriously, it might be a version of a DIN connector. It's kinda weird that the key is near the center of the pin instead of being on the edge.

 

[KaffiMann]

Does not fit, missing a notch, and what about the 3 regular+1 large offset pins in the middle?

12 pins around, +3 and one large in the middle.

Is there any indication of the manufacturer stamped on the mounting ring? That might help to track things down. I strongly expect it's a "keep out the copiers" kind of connector.

 

[wrenchone]

Nope....

 

[wrenchone]

I' say pop the lid and see if there is any manufacturer info on the connector body, as there doesn't seem to be any on the mounting ring.

Can't help you on the catalog number, and I am pretty sure that only one of the ML guys remembered and he's no longer with them. They were sourced from Camec

Camec connectors for sure..... as signal connectors instead of RCA´s.
Not sure, this power connector was from Camec though 😉

Are you going to show us the pins? or are we playing a game?

Fischer this is where levinson got all there connectors it will take a bit of looking through there site

"a bit of looking"
Litterally the first thing I saw, awfully close!

Hi wrenchone,

I don't think any of the sockets are keys. I f you look closely, there appears to be a flat at the 12 O'clock position. I think that is your key.
On the other hand, I don't think you need a key at all because you can't plug it incorrectly to begin with.

Sincerely,

Ralf

Hi KaffiMann,

If that connector is the power supply input, then the plug that plugs into it, must have pins and those pins have voltage on them! Strange.

Sincerely,

Ralf

Yes, the orientation is wrong.
I have used multi-pin plugs for very specific purposes before, it is not uncommon amongst uncommon solutions. 😆
Should be easy to get the pinout once you open the lid.
