Can someone ID this cable jack please..looks like XLR but isn't

[rissey]

I'm trying to find out what type of cable jack this is. It initially looks like an XLR 4 Pin, except that the pins are spaced out differently and shape is also different (someone else has also confirmed it isn't an XLR). Can anyone ID this cable type since i need to order an L shaped version...thanks

It looks like a 4 pin DIN

4 pin DIN?

I think you're right, thank you =D

Look like it is, thanks.

For me the pins look too thick for it to be a 4 pin DIN. It looks almost identical to a plug that I used to have on an laptop PSU.
Have a look at this page

That looks like it. It certainly isn't a 4 pin DIN.

Rissey, If I may ask, what is it used for? Power feed to a piece of equipment?

Google mini DIN power and a few come up that look like it

This one even has a dimensioned photo that might help:

Good spot Bryan, it's a Male pin mini din, which is odd as the plugs are usually female pin.
