I've never heard of DA-anything; the terminology I'm familiar with is
DB-n where N can be 9, 15, 25, even 37... DB-9 is the PC serial
connector; that shell also is used (with 3 rows of pins) for VGA.
DB-15, the AUI connector shell, is the same height as DB-9 and DB-25
but in between for width. The pin spacing and pin arrangement (i.e.,
one row offset a half pitch from the other) is the same for all three.
