At any rate, the "eyelet" pins are the ones that look sort
of like an elongated donut. You stick the wire through the
center and solder. The other connector looks like it might
expect wire-wrap.
I'd suppose the eyelet connectors would be better for
soldering on single wires, cassette cables, etc.
Glad to see you can still get those connectors.
I had to buy something like 20 at once to get them.

You'll also need a 44 pin edge card
connector.
They can be quite difficult to find.
I think Douglas sells these.
