HISTORY:
Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.
Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.

This connector is an equipment "pull" from some OLD Tandberg audio equipment plug-in modules, these modules plugged into the main system "main frame". I kept these because I have come across other European audio equipment (some reel to reel tape machines for example) from the 1980's using the same connector. So if your gear has this strange looking 32 way socket at the rear (possibly for remote control as an example) this male section may be just the thing you need. There is NO body with this plug, originally it was internally mounted within the module and a body was not needed.
