!!! Overview
Over the years, we have come across this cable or that and the vendor for the product usually wanted a fortune for the cable that was obviously nothing but a simple off-the-shelf cable with a twist. So [{$applicationname}] created this [Cheat Sheet] to capture what some of these cables were so we could either make them on-site or not have to wait for something to get shipped to us.

!!!It Irks Me!
When a hardware manufacture provides what could be a standard connection but put something in it to make it proprietary so you have to pay $25.00 for a $2 cable. Often, with me, I do not care about the cost, but to stop what I am doing to wait to get the cable, is not acceptable.
We have, with the help of others, tried to compile some of those cable connections to save you and us, time and money.
