Coil cable and connector question

[m23585]

Anyone could recommend a good cable for White's Classic IIISL DD coil to buy (best available in the UK)? Also because Switchcraft plugs are bit expensive delivered to UK, do you think that using something like this could do the job?

- White's cable type was Belden 8723, more later they use more fat one, that type I do not know.
- SWITCHCRAFT SL405FX Slim Line Connector, female, 5 contact, pin arrangement D

I meant, any other cable I could use with those plugs I mentioned? Switchcraft plug costs few times more (including delivery) than the one from the link I posted. So, I'm looking for something cheaper and easily available than original components.

cheaper and available to CHANGE OUT switchcraft on cable and at housing by this one.

Thanks kt315. I just bought it. How about a cable, which one you could recommend? Best if it also could fit Troy X3 coil, in case I'd like to make coil for. Thanks

Could you tell me what parameters are important when choosing a coil cable then (i.e. resistance, inductance)?

I just found a cable in a local store:

Will this be ok?
