It could be a scsi cable for the scsi extension socket of an Apple Mac.
They used a 25 pin pin "D" o/p at some point for a bus to external scsi
devices. That would be scsi 1. The feed would have been to a box with
psu & hd or psu & cdrom in most cases. '80s Vintage, or early '90s.
As to pinouts, you are entirely on your own. I'm a pc guy. I'd like a
Mac, but never got around to it.
