First Google hit for "DEC 20mA TTY connectors mate-n-lok":
http://vt100.net/docs/vt05-rm/chapter1.html
M = 8 contact, male plug. Manufacturer's Part No.: Mate-N-Lock
1-480460-0, DEC Part No. 12-09340-00.
F = 8 contact, female receptacle, DEC Part No. 12-09340-01.
Tyco appears to own the AMP brand right now.
The pins are rather ordinary, but I don't know where to get the shells
these days. Long ago, I hacked two male Molex 4-pin power connectors
into a bastardized 8-pin shell to hook my PDP-8/L to a VT220 - it was
ugly, but it mostly worked.

you get more
than one).
I also have some of these in my parts bins. Do you need both the male and
female?
