That should be fine; the DEC M9042 board (basically equivalent) used three
H854 flat cables, see:

  http://www.computerhistory.org/collections/catalog/XD149.80

The DEC board makes every other conductor in the flat cable a ground; not
quite as good as twisted pair, but close.

I would definitely be interested in some (how many exactly would depend on
the price).
