I did some more looking and what I need are BC03C (or possibly BC03E)
cables. I discovered that you need 11 cables to propagate the NEGIBUS
from one device to another! I'm going to need a lot of these cables!!

Does anyone know where I can find these cables? Or am I going to be
stuck fabricating them?

Thanks.
