Where to get a flyer Octopuse cable?
« on: April 30, 2006, 09:23:30 PM »
Hi,

Without breaking the bank (softhut wants $125 thats way to much) where can I get a new or in good condition octopuse cable for the Video Toaster flyer or at least an external SCSI cable for 50pin SCSI drives with one end having a 50pin internal connector to connect to the Flyer card.

Thanks

It shouldent be, its just 3 seperate 50pin internal to external SCSI cables. About 3Ft long each.
They run from the Flyer board out of the Amiga 4000 to a seperat tower holding the Hard drives.

Unfortunatly Newtek has no more in stock and the company that made them for Newtek is no longer in buisness.
The cable is going to be tough to make as it needs internal 50 pin conectors on one end and external conectors on the other It needs to be made with round cable so it can be routed outside the case to the Flyer tower case.
