Without docs, I traced out the DB25 for the external MFM floppy so I
could boot an install floppy, but lacking a handy DB44M soldertail
connector or pre-made cable to cannibalize, I never bothered tracing
out the CD-ROM connector.
I have seen similar density D-connectors (wider versions of a DE15HD
VGA connector) on the back of older Cisco gear, but I can't remember
what the shell was... perhaps they were DA26s.

Interesting. Where'd you see that, Tony?
In some catalogue, along with the DA26. I don't think I've seen either in
the flesh...
