Military part number?

[cbvet]

Picked up a cable. Heavy rubber 14/12 conductor. Has male & female ends with spring-loaded covers.
I thought it was an extension cable for a trailer light hookup, but not quite. I believe one end will fit into my deuce trailer outlet with a little rubber lube. The other end is NOT a trailer plug receptacle. Identical 12 pin contacts, but has a collar that won't allow plug to go in.
Has a metal tag reading 19207-7728814; MFR 65406.
Can anyone tell me what it's for?
Thanks,
Eric

Thinking thats the cord to run tail lights to the end of a howitzer or the like. Thinking it plugs into the lightbar that clamps to the barrel. I have one too!

If you can find a -20p for the M198 howitzer the cable that Kenny is talking about fits it.

tractor trailer IV cable perhaps?

It's like 30' long Mark. Thats exactly what it look like though. Well, at least mine is 30' long. Eric, how long is yours?

Found it! Look below. Intervehicle cable from the M52 tractor.

IV cable for just about any Mil tractor...

Cable I have is 12' long, just as you found in the TM, Kenny.
Nice to know what its intended use is.
Now I need to take pics of this green metal plate & clamps I got...........
