Help with Keyboard cable for M0110A keyboard

Hello! I just received a M0110A keyboard I ordered from eBay to use with my rehabilitated Fat Mac 512k. The good news is that the keyboard works. The bad news is that the cable doesn't. The keyboard works with a cable that I already had in stock but not with the one that came with it. Weird huh? Do these things go bad? It's hard to tell, but it looks like both ends have a little corrosion. Maybe that's the problem? Could it be a compatibility issue?

If this thing is toast, doesn't anyone have one they could stand to part with?

per Larry Pina I inspected the cable. It does appear to be a Mac cable, not a phone cable.

Probably a broken wire in one of the connectors.
With the right tool a phone cable can be modified to suit.
