We have an old 50 pin cable.  Thing has to be about 10-12 feet long.  It's a
ribbon cable.  A rainbow colored ribbon cable.  External 10 - 12 foot
rainbow ribbon cable.
: )
The thing was used for an IRIS printer.  The printer was never more than 3
feet away though.  Pretty useless but it came with the printer.
Looks cool though.
