Clint Sharp suggested it might be an auto-iris connector; Mouser sells
a Kobiconn auto-iris connector as catalog number 163-196J. Drawing in

Many thanks you both! Those are already very very close to the actual connector :)

Seems like the right direction to go, thanks for pointers, I'll dig a bit further before going home-brew if necessary...

Alternatively, you could cut the PSU output cable in half and install a
connector that mortals can purchase on both ends. Then, you can swap
the end that fits the camera between the AC PSU and your battery.

Hmm, yes. PSU price is ~$90 on eBay and it could be a good solution. The bit with the AC PSU would be superfluous for my needs, though. Well I'll check maybe Nikon repair here has some dead AC PSU's to give away. (BTW strange that there are no 3rd party PSU's for Nikon Dxxx around... maybe it's a proprietary connector after all...)
