Joe,
Responding a bit late, but I had exactly the same problem today.
Eventually found that I had to use the specific cable, luckily I found one.
The difference between the specific cable and a standard rolled cable with
two terminal connectors, seems to be that pins 1and 6 are looped on the OEM
cable.
Pin 1 is not even connected in the standard cisco connectors.
I reckon if you can get pin 1 and 6 looped somehow on the switch the normal
cable may work. Otherwise get the real cable.
The following link has the right cable at Figure A6:

Watch the wrap.
