If that is a single row of 7 pins (sockets), there is nothing like it in my catalog. All the "D" type connectors have two rows.

Wow... I've seen similar connectors, but not 14-pin... it might be a serial link connector, I would say mid-80's era, but I don't have one like here at work.

Thanks for all your suggestion, I think it may be some kind of SCSI cable. The problem is I dont know how to link it to a DB25 connector. I need to solder it to DB25 to make it a single cable, so that one side is this one,the other side is DB25.

I have seen this type connector, but not in this size. We use them in the telepnone industry, most especially for station wiring to multi-line key sets, and other analog voice/signal applications. The most common variety is 25 pair (50 pin), but I have seen them up to 32 pair (64 pin). All are double row and come in male & female styles. The term used to describe them was always "cinch" but I think that referred to the original manufacturer. Also notice it has the same basic configuration as a standard "Centronics" printer interface (just not as many pins), so it could possibly a condensed version of a centronics printer interface cable. You may want to look online for telephone cable suppliers such as GreyBar Electric or Anixter for a match.
