I have a older Vox-On monitor that is configured like
that. I also seem
to remember some older NEC models that needed a HD15 to DE9 cable. I
still have the cable, so I can look at it when I get home. As far as the
Sabre label, American Airlines used to private label a lot of AST
computers and monitors as Sabre for distribution to travel agencies for
connection to the Sabre reservation network. There were a lot of P100
Sabre systems floating around DFW for a while.
No sooner did I post the email than I found one DE9 to HD15 cable. It had
fallen behind the cabinet that one of the monitors was sitting on top of.
So now I have at least one cable and can use that to make a 2nd if need
be.
I think you might be right on the Sabre label. It does look like the
American Airlines Sabre system logo (although it has been a long time
since I have seen that logo so I might be wrong). I'm not sure how I
wound up with two monitors from their systems however.

You could instead make an adapter to go from the 9-pin to the 15-pin, then
just continue using standard 15-pin to 15-pin cables, and just plug on the
adapter
when needed.
