Build or repair your own high-performance data cables with our 6-Pin Mini DIN Male Plug. Often referred to as a PS/2 connector, this 6-pin male plug is the industry standard for legacy computer peripherals, amateur radio data interfaces, and specialized industrial control systems. Engineered for durability and signal accuracy, this connector allows you to create custom-length cables for your specific hardware needs without compromising on data integrity.
Legacy Computing: Create custom extensions or repairs for PS/2 keyboards, mice, and KVM switches.
Amateur Radio (Ham Radio): The standard plug for TNC (Terminal Node Controller) and Packet Radio data ports on Yaesu, Icom, and Kenwood transceivers.
Industrial Control Units: Used in PLC programming leads and specialized sensor cables requiring a 6-way interface.
Custom DIY Electronics: Perfect for projects that require a compact, multi-pin circular connector for low-voltage power and data signals.
Standard 6-Pin Layout: Fully compatible with all universal 6-pin Mini DIN female sockets (PS/2 style).
Integrated Strain Relief: Includes a flexible rubber boot to protect the wire connection from bending fatigue and mechanical stress.
Shielded Internal Housing: Features a metal inner shell to provide a ground path and shield sensitive data from EMI and RFI interference.
Easy-Solder Terminals: Designed with accessible solder points to facilitate clean and secure wire attachment for DIY hobbyists and pros alike.
Reliable Signal Transfer: Nickel-plated pins ensure low contact resistance, critical for avoiding data lag or signal dropouts in radio and PC applications.
Keyed for Safety: Features an internal alignment guide to ensure the plug only inserts in the correct orientation, protecting your equipment from short circuits.
Industrial Build Quality: Constructed with high-impact ABS housing and heat-resistant insulators that won't melt easily during the soldering process.
Connector Type: Mini DIN Male Plug
Pin Count: 6 Pins
Is this the same as an S-Video plug?
No. S-Video uses 4 pins. This is the 6-pin version. While they look similar in size, an S-Video plug will not fit a 6-pin socket, and vice versa.
Can I use this for a 5-pin MIDI port?
No, MIDI uses the larger Standard DIN format. This is a Mini DIN connector, which is significantly smaller in diameter.
What type of cable should I use with this?
We recommend using shielded multi-core cable with an outer diameter of 4mm to 5mm to ensure a proper fit within the strain relief boot.
