Does anyone here have a video cable suitable for

IIRC, these are fairly common as they were used on many SGI and Sun
workstations. Its called a 13W3 cable.

Sun 13W3 cables do not work correctly with SGIs and most monitors. I
disremember what the signal is, but pin 10 needs to be *removed* from
the Sun cable. IIRC, SGI is SOG and Sun is composite sync.
