Art, The Y-BOX (v2.1 and later) converts any standard (economical) 15-pin M/F DE-15 cable into the equivalent of a KPAK3AUX cable, plus it supports other features not supported by the stock Elecraft cable, such as KPA500 / KPA1500 remote power on/off via a K3 macro (DIGOUT1 to pin 8), and easy insertion of a SteppIR tuning relay Interrupt into the 15-pin cable's keying line (pin 10). It does not work with VGA monitor cables (never used those with any Elecraft product).
I offer 15-pin cables with the Y-BOX in both 2.5 ($10) and 5-ft lengths ($12). Connect two M/F 5-ft cables together to get 10 ft.
