I recently acquired a four speed SCSI CD-ROM drive (IBM 88G4919) for my Pentium MMX build. I'm very happy with it, but I would like to hook it up to my SB16 (CT2230) and I don't recognize the audio connector:

Although the connector has 4 pins as expected, the two different types of jacks I have on my audio cable doesn't fit:

I've been fooling around on eBay for a while and can't seem to find a jack that looks like it would fit this type of connector.

Can any of you help me find a source for a suitable cable?

Yeah that's the proprietary Panasonic connector.

Re: [SOLVED] CD Audio cable question

Search U.S. eBay. I bought two of the cables from a guy over there.

Is this too much voodoo?

OMG thanks! Panasonic was the keyword.

Thanks, thanks, thanks!

Take care that there appears to be a 3-pin "Panasonic" connector as well but your drive uses a 4-pin connector. I've never seen a drive that uses this 3-pin connector. Ask the seller to clarify this before buying.
