you dont need the breakout cable to put a foot/hand ptt switch. you need 
a mono 2.5 mm headphone jack. and you need to fo into the menu and put 
the acc2 port into ptt_low.

but if you plan to use a ptt and the amp then you need the breakout cable

*KX3-PCKT Accessory Cable Set*

    The KX3-PCKT cable set interfaces between the Elecraft KX3 and
    personal computers, and provides convenient connection to an
    external foot switch and RF power amplifier./KX3-PCKT Instructions/
