I like this diagram:

Once constructed, your cable can look like this:

        +---+                           +-----+        +-----+
        ! 5 !--------\           /------!  3  !--------!  3  !
        ! 0 !--------\ A miracle/-------!  4  !--------!  4  !
        !   !-N/C       occurs----------!     !--------!     !
        ! p !------------here-----------!  p  !--------!  p  !
        ! i !--------/          \-------!  i  !--------!  i  !
        ! n !-------/               N/C-!  n  !--------!  n  !
        +---+                           +-----+        +-----+
        DIP                              Edge           Edge
    (facing down)                     (facing up)     (facing up)
