Does anyone know the name, code of this cable? The 9600 All in Wonder doesn't have a vga output, instead it has this weird connector, which uses a pigtail with vga, rca outputs, etc... But I don't have it!

Seems to be this - https://www.priceblaze.com/6110017300-ATITech-Cable

I paid very cheaply for it, but I hadn't noticed the lack of a vga port. I think I have only two alternatives left, either I return it to the seller, or I find out the pinout and solder a vga output using any vga dongle.

Old thread, but I had a similar problem. I have three AIW 9600 cards, but only two of these pigtails. Mine has a slightly different part number (6110015300) but looks identical to the 6110017300.

I made a pinout diagram to explore potentially making a breakout board that plugs into the connector. Making a replica cable is more or less impossible because of the weird proprietary Wieson connector. The company that made the connector still exists, but they have no information on the connector.

It has a standard pin pitch of 2.0mm, so rigging up something using individual pin headers should be possible. I've tried some of those "Amazon special" 2.54mm pin headers and they fit in the socket, but they're too wide. I need to order some 2.0mm variants to wire up the necessary pins. Thankfully there are a decent number of ground pins, so not all of the pins need to be used.

Great work Falco!

Any chance you could attach the image of the pinout to the post, incase imgur goes down or changes its image sharing policy in the future? Would be sad if someone needs this information in 10 years and the image is down.
