Looking for a TURBOchannel Extender Cable

I have finally fixed the PSU of my TURBOchannel Extender
(https://robs-old-computers.com/2018/09/23/h7826-power-supply-repaired/).
Which means that now I would like to connect it to my DECstation 5000/240. I
need the relevant extender cable, which I believe to be a BC12N or a
17-03335-01. I asked on this list about a year ago if anyone has such a
cable and thought I would try asking again. I have found a 100-pin SCSI
cable that mechanically fits, but I don't know if that has the correct pin
assignments. I am aware of a site in the UK which lists this cable
(http://refurb.icc4it.co.uk/parts/legacy/dec/17-03335-01) but it looks like
one of those sites that speculatively lists things without necessarily
stocking them, and it is likely to charge business prices anyway.

 

So, two questions:

 

1.       Could the 100-pin SCSI cable do the job?

2.       Anyone have a genuine cable going spare (ideally in the UK).

 

Regards

 

Rob
