It depends on the wall-wart -
but maybe the type you are looking for is "Coaxial connector"?

are you talking about the MFOS Wall Wart Power Supply?

on that page, it specifically says "Use only an AC output wall wart DO NOT USE A DC OUTPUT WALL WART" (written in large red letters, under the heading "!!! IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS !!!"

Ray goes to great lengths to give detailed instructions on his pages, it really pays to RTFM before starting a project. Especially when involving mains lines voltages, which are potentially lethal.

yes, that´s why I´m asking twice. But i´m not talking about
the 12v AC adapter. I know I should NOT use a DC adapter.
I´m talking about the socket/connector or jack
where the plug goes in from 12v AC adapter. Can this socket/jack be
an DC power connector or an AC DC power connector?

sorry i misunderstood. connectors are neither AC nor DC, the voltage going thru them is. so whatever connector matches the wallwart you're using is fine.
