Ribbon Cable RasPi LCD - Wiki Dead Link

Speaking to Cyntech today they confirmed their 26 way ribbon cable for the Raspberry Pi display is discontinued. Our Wiki has a dead link as a result; maybe someone has a link to a suitable replacement.

Can't recall where I got mine. :?

Hacked an old floppy disk drive or IDE drive cable perhaps?

Thanks for the suggestions but I'm not looking for a cable; my Portsdown is long complete. I was hoping someone was able to update the Wiki link with new supplier details.

Thanks again.

I was looking at the LO filter on the Wikki the other day too and with the new web site links are now broken as they are pointing at a location on the old site.

Its a big job to update everything :-(

Oh well we got something out of my query; I have corrected the dead LO Filter link you discovered. :)

It will now take you to the shop page.

I have found another extender cable and corrected the link.
