I just checked some of my POD's and 685495 is the twisted pair cable for the 8085 POD. All of my Z80's have the twisted pair cable with the number John listed for the Z80QT: 685461. Just to add one more to the mix, I happened to be working on my 8080 POD's today and can say that all of my 8080 POD's have a twisted pair cable with the number 685487.

Thanks,
