There is no such variant because the only 68-pin devices Sun ever
shipped of that vintage* were the full-height differential disks used
in the Differential SCSI Disk Subsystem (those huge 6-disk trays at
the bottom of SC2000s & similar). If you want a SCSI enclosure with an
HD68 cable internally, it'd have to be third-party just like the disk
you'd be looking to use.
Hope that helps,

* AFAIK, the only other 68-pin devices ever used by Sun were a couple
U320 SCSI disks for the recent x86 Java workstations. Kinda odd that
they wouldn't just make these SCA like the rest... they've since moved
on to SATA/SAS so I doubt there will be any others.
