A few years ago I bought such a cable from a vendor in California.
No Sun markings and nothing marked on the connectors.  The cable is 
marked "E119932 RU AWM 2919 80\degC 30V VW-1 Low Voltage Computer Cable".  
Wikipedia describes the connectors as DB13W3 (male) and DE-15F.

Here it connects a ViewSonic G653 to a Sparcstation 2 with CG6 video. 
The vendor of the adapter told me that some monitors can not synchronize 
with CG6.  In any case, the G653 works. 

Bought the adapter through eBay as I recall; $US17.85 including postage.  
If I can find the name of the vendor, will post it.
