Also called "DB connectors" and "D-subs," they come in 9, 15, 25, 37 and 50 pin varieties. The D-sub designation defines the physical structure of the connector, not the purpose of each line.

Anyone ever had to repair a D-sub 15 pin VGA cable? We've got a 35 foot cable in our conference room that is damaged right near the connector. I've been tasked with repairing it if possible.
