Wow, I've got one of those too. If someone offers you a wheelbarrow full
of cash for it, let me know.
It's a 5 pin DIN socket, to an RJ11 + lead with a single large pin
with a slot in it.
I /think/ it was for a Wyse AT computer to allow the use of a standard
PC AT Keyboard, but don't quote me on that.
I believe that's correct, but not 100% sure. It would have been used pre
80386.
There is a part number on the moulding of the DIN - 940398-02 REV. A -
but googling shows nothing.
Sure it's not 940393-01 REV A? Maybe mine's rarer than yours?
If anybody wants it, it's theirs for free; just cover the postage.
