I did look at using a type A USB socket connector for this as you can get panel mount ones and they are 4 pins, polarised and roughly fit in the hole. Plus I¡¯ve got some old mice lying around I can steal the cable off for the QLG1.?
However it will probably blow everything up if you plug something non USB into it.?

I think perhaps I'd use a mini DIN connector of the type used by PS/2 keyboards, the 4 pin variant...

Hi,
I¡¯m up for suggestions on this too.
I saw the 4 pin 3.5mm audio jack mentioned. Any others?
Was the cutout for some kind of mini DSub? I¡¯ve used those before at work but they were highly specialized and hard to come by.
