Hello. Acording to the d-subminiture standard that should be a da-xx (xx is a number). You can find more information about dsubminiature here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-subminiature

Acording to the thread below it is an da-15 connector.

To find out what connector it is simply count the number of pins in the contact and replace xx with the number.

example:

if it is 15 pins

da-xx is da-15
