I'm looking for a manufacturer+PN of the video connector that plugs into ATI video cards. I'm not talking about the VGA or DVI connectors. This connector look similar to a 7 pin mini DIN connector, but has a different connector arrangement.

ATI (ignore underscores):
_'_'_'_
'_'_'_'
_---_

Standard:
_'_'_'_
'_---_'
_'_'_

Any ideas?

Yes, it is S-Video (or HDTV out) - the ATI 7-pin variant. Though you can use the standard 4-pin cables with it. It is a variant on the 7-pin mini din. You may be able to find the connector at any good electronics parts vendor: Jameco, digikey, mouser, allelectronics, and possibly bgmicro, etc. (all are .COMs). The standard 4-pins give you the standard S-video separate signals. An extra 2 in the middle row give you composite out without a converter/adapter (one pin isn't connected). My digikey catalog doesn't have that connector, but it is a fairly old catalog.
. If you have the X700 or X800 card, you might want to buy the cable from ATI for driving HDTV: http://shop.ati.com/product.asp?sku=2550138

It is ATI's S-video connector. It splits out to a 4pin S-video and regular RCA audio/video cables. I have the connector.

Most applications can use the 4 pin, but for our need, we need all 7. (it's not exactly a standard application)
