Greetings - The cable is called mini USB 2.0 Data Sync Cable - the pictures and price range available on the link belpw -

http://sewelldirect.com/Garmin-GPSMAP-498-USB-20-Data-Sync-Cable-6-ft.asp

As far as I'm concern, this should be the same Data cable used by digital camera.


Hope that is helpful.
