96 PIN DIN 41612 FEMALE at the backplane
96 PIN DIN 41612 MALE at the boards.
The ECB-bus was defined in 1984 by the german company KONTRON.
It was defined for the 100x160mm-europa-card and used 2x32 pins of a
3x32-pin-connector (row a and c).
Later the third (middle) row of pins was defined for additional signals
used in 16-bit-systems. This extended bus uses all 3x32pins.
