Details
These are known as Plessey Painton connectors, being manufactured by the company of the same name. Plessey actually called them the 'Multicon' range, they are also sometimes referred to as Jones or in the USA, Cinch plugs.
This type is an in line pair, 24 way cable mount 'free' or running male, together with a matching cable mount 'free' or running female, both halves have a galvonised pressed steel heavy duty housing.
Eight of the connections are at a 90 degree angle to the other sixteen, and one of the pins doubles as a locating pin, thus avoiding an incorrect connection.
Connectors of this size and quality would cost a fortune now, well over £100 for a matched pair like this.
Superb vintage military specification heavy duty connectors, the contact is provided by a heavily silver plated plug blade contact engaging with a heavily silver plated socket clip contact. Absolute reliability is ensured because each socket clip has 4 individual areas of contact with each plug blade.

Dimensions of the housings are approx 67mm x 37mm x 27mm and the cable entries are about 17mm.
