I don't know where you'd get 'em, but this is from a previous post:

Quote:
The EDS interconnect cables are pin for pin 10 (one required) and 15
(two required for a two card system) conductor ribbon cables. These
can be made from readily available parts at your local electronics
supplier. Make them short (less than 4"). Some people cut down IDE
cables, but I find it way less hassle to pick up the parts and build
them properly.

For clarity, I believe (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong) "pin for pin" means pin 1 = pin 1 on the other end, etc - no tricky "crossing over" of pins, just a straight equivalence, the kind you automatically get by just crimping on a connector.

The other option is just to throw the request on the "classifieds" forum, I'm guessing someone will probably have some extras for you cheap.

I got my last reliable set from East Coast Music (Morgan). I got some
off of Ebay to expand and have had nothing but trouble so now have to
get a tester. Stick with a reliable source.

You can get them from POLOLU ROBOTICS, in Las Vegas Nv. They have a great website, but the cables take a bit of searching to find. I purchased a 16 pin for $3.00, and they had it in stock. Later!
