They have multiple power/return pins. Most of the signals are differential, and some have what they call a set of "absolute" tracks in addition to the quadrature. I never have figured out what exactly is on those tracks, but they are obviously only absolute over one rotation. I have a number of the Electrocraft cables, they usually fail to populate a goodly number of the pins.
