Are you sure? It may bot have been a stock item, but surely it was

Incidentlasly, somwwhere I have a 3rd paerty versio nof that cable. Not a
Radio Shack one, or one suppleid with the Dragon machines (which IIRC use
the same cassette cable). I wonder waht it was designed for?
Around here, IBM didn't sell that cable!

Shack and buy a cable.
26-1401? (Or was that my highschool gym locker?)
