I would have thought using a standard 10 pin header with ribbon cable
would make as cheap an interface cable as any - and then there are
enough conductors to have every second one an earth, reducing crosstalk
in the cable, and allowing the clocking to run faster. I would also
classify such a cable as more rugged than an RJ12 cable.
