Zip Connector, again!

I'm starting to get really annoyed now that I still can't find the right adapter to go from my Jaz Jet to my Zip plus. These will work together, right?

Anyway, first I got a Zip SCSI Connector over the net which was supposed to go from 50-pin to 25-pin. Of course, when I got it I found out that it was 50-pin but it was some larger connection.

Next, I called up 1-800-my-stuff and explained what I needed to the salesman at PC connection and received a 50HD to 25-pin converter. Unfortunately, the gender was wrong, despite my telling them exactly what I needed.

Then I called them up again and asked for one of the opposite gender, and what to I get? A Zip SCSI connector, as above! Arrrrrrggggg...

Should I try again or should I see if I can find a 50HD-50(low density?) converter, or two gender converters of the right kind?

Why doesn't Iomega make it clear what exactly their connectors connect?

What I need, BTW, is a connector with 50HD male on one side and 25 female on the other.
