I thought I should add this connector info to the 11 set thread. The 4 prong plug is the same as the telephone set D uses.
The connectors are simple enough: No.9 plug for the headset, No.10 plug for the microphone, and what I assume is a WW2 vintage banana plug for the morse key (sharing the earth connection with the headset and microphone).
edit: the numbers on the cardboard are the wire lengths.

If the cable assy is made in the UK there's a good chance this plug is called a "wander" plug. It looks like a banana plug but has different pin diameter. A banana plug will not fit in the mating socket.

The MCR1 SOE receiver uses these and it frustrated me to no end trying to find some. Finally got lucky at a radio rally.
