New photos of Apple's alleged mini dock connector cable compared to a micro USB cable show that the two connectors are almost identical in size. Apple is expected to debut the connector with the iPhone 5.

Besides being smaller, it reportedly lacks a required orientation allowing you to insert the connector without worrying about which side is right side up.

The new connector has eight visible and likely uses the frame as a ninth grounding pin.

Apple will offer dock connector adapters for those who want to use their old accessories with their new device.
