    Well I removed the CPU module from my 5000/240 and it has *no markings*
other than the very small printed 32GI. DEC apparently likes these
connectors as they use them on all the PX/PXG video cards (I checked those
too, also unmarked), the 5000/xx CPU modules (can't check now, but probably
unmarked) and I'm sure others.
    If it helps, there are two 128 pin trapezoidal shaped connectors on the
240/260 CPU module. I can try hunting around DigiKey or AMP's web sites in
the morning. I didn't see anything even close in the Mouser catalog though.
If it were AMP, they would have their name stamped all over it, and so would
Honda or DuPont, so I'm not really sure where these came from.
