If it IS SA800/850, then FPADAP,
http://www.dbit.com/fdadap.html
is an easy way to handle the cabling.
The website say that they have 5 in stock,
so order immediately if you need it!

I agree.
I always made my own cables, but I did mention [ABOVE] that FDADAP
is the easy way to handle the cabling.

First cable that I made, I used a solderless bread-board, and looking at both pinouts, started placing wires. Once I saw what I was ending up with, subsequent cables were a flat 34 pin cable, that I peeled out a few wires, and very carefully held them in place to crimp on a 50 pin connector.
