Does anyone know, where the connectors of the QL expansion bus are available, edge (male) and socket (female) connectors (both with and without 90 degrees angle) so you can build a backplane with more than one slot?

For a backplane, he may need them with straight pins (ok, haven't look further there...
)

Hi
I bought then in RS. I put the result of searching them in rs germany

The code for female a+b 64 and 90º I use is 542-4675. I'm a bit surprise the price in germany is much cheaper that in spain :-O

Why do you think it's called a DIN connector?

They're great connectors, but they're not very dense.

The density is ok regarded to the Time when they were developed.
I think it's a pity that those quality connectors were designed for only 400 uses!
When you do some testing you are plugging those hundreds of times in one evening!
