My thanks to all who responded.

I have not found a supplier who sells these cables readymade (I have contacted

all companies I was pointed to).

The best bet is to contact

        Computer Cable Inc. 303-466-1733 (Denver, CO)

they make cables on order. You have to give them a spec for the cable however:

pinouts, what type of cable to use and so on.
