Thanks for the replies. But the different replies seem to
indicate that there's no single technical term for it.
One specific case was when a friend visiting a larger city (I'm
in a small town) called to ask if I needed anything. At that
time, I needed some 25-pin D-sub connectors for a cable. I told
him I wanted "cable types". He bought the correct type, but I
wondered if there was a standard term for it.
The term I usually see for this is "mount", as in
"cable mount" or "chassis mount".
