I'm looking for a SCSI cable. I need one that is a HD68 with screws to
Centronics 50 with the upper 9 bytes terminated. I haven't been able to
find one locally in Dallas. It is for a (OT) Octane to Sgi SCSI-1 CD-ROM

Try Cyberguys, http://www.cyberguys.com/
Pretty good, cheap SCSI cables. They have all kinds of neat, reasonably
priced stuff, accessory-wise at least.

SCSI-3 to SCSI-1 cable, should be available. I found one in Cedar Rapids
IA couple years ago. You'll have to figure out how to terminate the lines
though.

Your best bet might be to use a high byte terminator/adapter and a
standard cable.
Paralan [http://www.paralan.com/] used to make such adapters, but I don't
see them listed now. Overall their products are a bit pricey, but are of
extremely high quality.
I'd suggest you have a look at the section of the comp.periphs.scsi FAQ
that addresses these adapters. It include a list of vendors that can
supply these adapters/cables. The section is "Can I connect a narrow
device to my WIDE SCSI host adapter?" which can be found here:
http://fieldhome.net:9080/scsi_faq/scsifaq.html#_Hlk410547920
There is also a warning near the end of the section about mis-wired
adapters and TERMPWR that you should be aware of. I've come across some of
those mis-wired adapters that are mentioned there.
