I've spent part of this afternoon sorting through my collection of cable,
discarding (to my wife's amazement, and very likely to my future regret)
things I have too much of (5m lengths of CW1308 phone cable) or will never
need (very short lengths of ribbon cable, twinflex, 3-core -- why did I
keep *them*?)
I've found a DEC cable I can't identify. It's labelled BC99J, and consists
of a 40-pin Berg connected to about 2m of black multicore, which goes into
a rectangular potted box, about 6" x 3" and about 0.5" thick. Out of the
other side of the box is about 4m of the same black multicore, with the end
cut off. The label is date-stamped 12/6/78. Anyone know what this is/was?
