Try Dick Smiths Electronics. Not the cheapest ones.
Or you can use a regular Cat5 cable and buy a 20cm patch crossover cable for
about $5.
Ask local computer shops like Paradigm or Quay.

For getting cables made up I've been using Dataparts for years.
Unfortunately, they closed the Haining St (between Taranaki and Tory)
store a year or so ago, and are now only in ChCh, but couriers work
fine...

0800 328 296 or 03 365 5602.

I got a 20m fly lead off them for home a while back. I think it was about
$30 including courier to Wellington.

Alas Dataparts is gone but there is a cable shop behind the MacDonalds
(Adelaide Road) carpark - name is DCS-dryad. Good guys, I use their services
frequently. Bit out of the way but if you go into the MacD park from
Adelaide Rd, they are straight ahead. 385 0330, fax 384 8525
