For a matching cable and connector try 
   http://www.mfjenterprises.com/products.php?prodid=MFJ-5205

This is an open end cable with 5pin DIN that mates to the MFJ 
TNCs. List price is $4.95 ... about what Radio Shack wants for 
a connector only.  The connector mates nicely with the Yaesu 
Packet jack on the FT-990/FT-920/FT-1000/D/MP/MK-V and the 
cable is two shielded pairs (four wires, two shields) with a  
molded DIN connector.
