any advice as to what cables to solder together/could we get a wiring schematic so that we can rig this together?
Thanks guys

Again, there is a diagram and a pinout of the cable in the Getting Started Guide I linked to above.
That being said, I don't recommend splitting and soldering the cables. The wires are small and you will have to individually insulate each one to prevent shorts.
It is much less of a hassle (and less error prone) to just buy a cheap crimper, bulk 6 conductor cable, and 6p6c connectors from Radio Shack, Fry's, or your favorite electronics shop and make the cables correct yourself. The Getting Started Guide has part numbers for the cable pieces if you need to order them online.
Note: You only need 6 conductor cable between the Serial adapter and the first Black Jaguar. For the rest, 4 conductor cable and 6p4c connectors will suffice... but why have two kinds of cables to keep track of?
