What you need is the current issue of Make, which has an article on
exactly this problem:
From MAKE 01: Premiere, Page 96
The 5-in-1 Network Cable
by Mike Ossmann
Nothing's worse for a network administrator than being without a
needed cable. So I made a single cable to replace the five I used
to carry. The result: no more tangles and no more scrounging for a
missing link.
Quoted from <http://www.makezine.com/01/5in1cable/>.
The author has a fuller version at <http://www.ossmann.com/5-in-1.html>.
