you can buy one at the Black Moon CD-i Store (Look at the hardware section)

Or if you're a handyman give it a try using these scans

If you want to make the cable yourself, the CD-i end is a so-called MiniDIN 8, also used by the Macintosh serial ports.

Cannibalizing a Mac serial cable avoids the tricky MiniDIN soldering (small pins, close together); I've made mine that way...
