IBM G8000 & G8124 switch Cable Kit

[PnoT]

I've been looking for this cable for 6+ months and have went through numerous users on the forums here and vendors that say they can get their hands on them to no avail. My eBay search popped up this morning for CONSOLE CABLE KIT SPARE so I'm sharing the love.

Pity no pictures, so no idea what box contains.

BTW seller is offering 20 cent discount on Amazon

90Y9462 Option - misc Console Cable Kit

That includes a micro-USB to RJ45 dongle, about 4" long, a serial to RJ45 cable - Cisco Console Cable if you will, and a 5-15P/C13 power cable I believe.

Looks like this seller has a few as well for $10 cheaper: Console Cable Kit Spare (90y9462_18)

I made my own "cisco cable" <-> mini usb adapter from rj45 + 2x usb connector that was desoldered from dead motherboard.
Accepts box standard mini usb and rj45-db9 cables, it didn't cost me a thing, just couple minutes of tinkering and shuffling through g8000 datasheet.

I've made this cable before, not very hard.. if you want to send me $20/each I can make some more.
