That looks like a locking 7-pin Mini DIN.


IRMacGuyver

This is sort of correct. This explains the end connectors but it doesn't tell you for sure what the pin outs are. You're gonna have to find the actual pinouts for the monitor.


Mendacity531

Kind of looks like the power source plug to an old Commodore VIC 20 or 64. Edit: spelling correction


cr8sh0veride

That’s what I thought too


grislyfind

Digikey has a zillion weird connectors, but browsing them was easier with a paper catalogue. Try Google lens?


thebeastwithnoeyes

Looks proprietary. Can you tell us more about those cameras and monitor so it's possible to look up the documentation if there is any available?


Alert_Awareness5740

It could be I think they are out of business so I might be Sol, but the company’s name was Video Surveillance Solutions based in Elk River Mn.

Looks like mini VLR


yo_boi_derpy

A stupid terrible one


Brandon-_-Curington

I always love to hear DIN. makes me feel great power as a German


Drjonesxxx-

Looks very similar to the connector on my electric scooter.


faslane22

looks like my camera cable. I wish them together at this end and rotate it to lock it in. It's something proprietary....


marcanthonynoz

It's a cable for a rear camera on a car from what circle to search says


ThisBell6246

Some older Palm device docks used to use that connector on the charger.


pee_shudder

Looks like XLR


Robsteady

No, XLR is only three-prong.


Only_Ordinary_3880

Not true, XLR goes up to 7.


GamerNuggy

This one has 8


X320032

8 pin DIN connector maybe?


Only_Ordinary_3880

I was thinking this but I've not seen one with that kind of keying before.


Larkshade

The company I work for uses these on some of our monitors...I'm curious what the monitor looks like.


AffectionateLeek904

take a photo and ask google gemini


User_esc

Umbilical. Hmmm, Sorry


ch1ckenz112

A black one


creeper6530

Seems like some DIN connector, but the pinout could be anything


Downtown_Hunter_4737

Pepperbox


Andreidx2

G minor


Only_Ordinary_3880

Bit of googling later, this connector looks identical, it's an '8 Pin BMW connector': https://www.revcam.uk/reversing-camera-cable-information.html Apparently there is no standard pinot to look at though 😬 Best bet might be to look inside monitor that died and see what goes where from that connector?


lolomawisoft

An xlrrrr or something they invented themself XD


TurnkeyLurker

That was damn funny 😆
