Is this the same as a MIDI port?
Yes. The 5-pin 180° DIN jack is the worldwide standard for MIDI hardware ports.
Does it include the mounting screws?
Typically, screws are sold separately to match your specific panel thickness, but the jack features standard M3-sized mounting holes.
Can I use this for a 3-pin application?
Yes. Since the pin spacing is the same, a 3-pin DIN male plug will fit into this 5-pin female socket, using only the center three pins.
