Aren't this very common 10 pin IDC
connectors? At least on my DLV-11J
clone from Sigma Systems. I used the usual 10 pin crimp connectors for
ribbon cable to make the cables.
I have a -J that I'd like to make work and I don't have cables either. I
might get a chance to try Jochen's suggestion this weekend, but not
before.
I have used both 10-pin IDC headers _and_ the old, black Berg headers
with the individual crimped pins. Given that the pins are on the order
of $0.45 each and the crimper is somewhat expensive, unless you plan
to make hundreds of connectors, you are probably going to want to go
with 10-pin ribbon cable and IDC connectors.
I don't know the brand names, but DEC used dark-blue and grey IDC
connectors, while the ones I saw commonly available were sky blue.
T&B?
I can't direct you to a source, unfortunately; I haven't bought any
in over 10 years.
