Sourcing of connector

As of now, there is no other source for the connector than Motorola. The rumor mill puts money on ITT Canon being the manufacturer.

The pins come in a 25 pin strip Motorola Part Number: 3980034F05

The housings are HLN6961

The body looks like 2 D-Sub connectors stacked with standard pitch spacing on the pins.

Aftermarket Pins will not work due to the low profile retaining ring. This thread on the Batlabs Batboard has some more info and this picture showing the differences below:

Notes on assembly

The TE 91285-1 Pin extraction tool is highly recommended. DigiKey Link

The Engineer PA-09 is recommenced as a crimper.

Photos of connector

I disassembled and took some close up pictures with my scope. The connector looks a bit similar to most D-SUB connectors.
