I'm pretty sure it is straight through. I checked my manual: pins 1-5 are metering 1-5, pin 6 is NC, and pin 7 is ground. They specify some 5-conductor shielded cable, 11 inches long. I didn't make mine that long, which might be a mistake - I won't know until I try to put it into the chassis.
I think those same connectors are used by the various test sets. I know I bought an entire plug and shell 30 years ago when I was working on a Micor mobile, but I don't recall how the shell was assembled to the connector body. Anyway, good luck with finding the connectors. Worst come to worst, you could use some small finishing nails, push them through a piece of wood, or drill holes in a piece of plastic and push them through, and use that. Once it's built and in place, you'll never see it again.
