DM3 / DM5 LVDS cable pinout - Page 2

That's great! Thanks!

Question. The wiki articles says:
The LVDS cables used to connect these cards to a VBOB use a 26-position male-to-male Centronics "Mini D Ribbon" or MDR. They are sometimes referred to as an MDR-26. In addition to the SGI parts, 3M part number 14526-EZ5B-050-02C (0.5 meters) can be used .


So my question is, why do the pinouts seem different between what was tested and the 3M version. If you look at the PDF Specifications for the 3M cable the pinout looks different. Maybe I am missing something here.

Thank you!

Edit: Looks like you beat me to my own question!
