Sun sells an adapter for PS/2 keyboards to Sun4/Sun5 keyboards (DIN-8) On
the off chance that the 3/80 uses a 15-pin connector, you can get a 15-pin
to DIN-8 adapter, too. The bad news is that the PS/2-to-Sun adapter is $75.

It's in the latest catalog. I don't know where to get the 15-pin-to-DIN-8 Sun
converter, so I'm making my own for a Sun 3/60 I'm restoring.
