Anyone know what this cable is for?

That looks like the SCSI cable for an external Sony CD-ROM “Discman”.    Sony PRD-250 CD-ROM Discman Portable Player (4x speed) https://docs.sony.com/release/PRD250MC.pdf or  Sony PRD-650 CD-ROM Discman Portable Player (6x speed) https://docs.sony.com/release/PRD650MC.pdf You can commonly find the drives on eBay but that cable not so much since it only came with Mac “version” (the PC one came with a different cable and PCMCIA card, but it’s the same drive).
