Hi
Looks like RS422 interface.

Would this be the interface between the Lisa and the Mac as related here:
http://folklore.org/StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&story=Shut_Up.txt&am…
Unfortunately, there was one small snag. We were
using the Lisa as the
development machine for writing the software for Macintosh, and we
hadn't yet reached the point where the Macintosh could run
stand-alone. The Macintosh needed to be hooked up to a Lisa, in order
to download software from it. But the Lisa group was writing all of
its own applications for Lisa and didn't want Microsoft to see a Lisa.
They made us promise that we wouldn't let Microsoft see the Lisa.
We finally came up with a solution where we'd use a twenty-five foot
cable and keep the Lisa in a different room that the Microsoft guys
weren't allowed to enter. I would start up the programs on the Lisa in
the other room, and Bud Tribble would operate the Macintosh. I would
usually run into the main room to see their reaction.
