This appears is the same Amphenol cable that I supply with my devices, for
$12 ea. if purchased with S-BOX or Y-BOX ($10 for a 2.5-ft version).  I
also have a few longer ones.

However, the link points to a M/F cable, which works from my Y-BOX v2.x or
v3.x to AMP AUX, but should never be connected between K3 ACC and AMP AUX.
There must be no connection on pins 1, 4, 6, 7, or 8 when connecting a K3
or K4 ACC to an Elecraft amplifier's AUX connector, which is how the
KPAK3AUX cable is wired.

Furthermore, Jim probably needs M/M cable for a homebrew Y-BOX, not M/F.  I
have those too, in 2.5-ft and 5.0-ft lengths, but I prefer to provide
cables with a purchase of a Y-BOX or S-BOX, or to support those who already
own one, rather than to take time to ship individual cables.
