The elon- gated D-shape is a naturally keyed shape as the curved edges on one side provide a guide to the correct ori- entation for connecting the cable. D connectors, es- pecially 9-, 1 5-, and 25-pin are commonly used to interconnect computers and peripheral devices such as printers, monitors, and modems. Most AlB switch- boxes f...
