There is no such thing as 'the usual DBIx'..

DBIx stands for 'DBI eXtension', and there are tens, if not hundreds  
of modules on the CPAN which extend DBI.

Assuming you mean DBIx::Class, then the answer is none - IIRC  
DBIx::Connector was extracted from DBIx::Class just so that people who  
didn't want the full ORM could still have and reuse the persistent  
connection and reconnect logic.
