That's easy enough: The mouse and keyboard patch cables have a mini-
DIN plug at each end that look the same.
Patch cables usually come in packages containing both video, keyboard
and mouse patch cables, one set per package. They run about $8 to
about $20 at computer discounters. Consider getting sets that are
shielded--at least for the video, or your screen may end up with
ghosting and considerable quality degradation.
Belkin sells patch cable sets. Consult their site at
