...And the other end of that cable was a connector that looked like a 
larger version of a telephone or cat 5 network connector and it had a 
spiral stress releasing cable. Found one just the other day in my bin of 
forgotten cables.

We've just always called them 5-pin din cables. They were also used, for 
unknown reasons, to connect the TV cameras to external batteries, 
notably those huge heavy power belts. Found a couple of those also.
