Where can I find this kind of wire?

[rjhery]

I'm looking for 20-conductor, 28 AWG (24 would be ok too), round cable to extend the distance between the two halves of a split keyboard. I can find 20-conductor ribbon cable, but not round cable. Does anyone know where I could find such a thing?

Thanks!

use an 80 pin ide cable lots of round ones avalible in lenght up to 1m total
but between first and second ide connector is 75cm max

this is your best choice i feel

or use network cable cat5 18 core {three are very thin}

better with ide cable

example is **broken link removed**

but i am sure a roll of it is avalible
however you can make a jointer from two strip snap pcb gold plated post pins strips

I think I see a few varieties of ordinary round cable in stock at DigiKey:

They also have "Flat Cable [Shielded] Round Jacket", similar to VSMVDD's suggestion:

They are all somewhat expensive.

Yeah, the round type cable works best.
Check your local surplus dealer, and buy some of the used stuff.
