Resolved by Jeremie!
Does anyone know of a cable I could buy domestically to the US with connectors that is compatible with the EZB camera port? I'd like to find a vendor that has cables like this that can ship to or within the US quickly.
I know I can order directly from EZ Robot but the last time I ordered these cables from them they took weeks to arrive. I really don't want to wait that long.
I've already set up 2 of 4 EZB's in my robot to connect to the computer through USB using the camera port. I want to go ahead and convert the other two.
As an alternative I can just buy connectors and pins and make my own. What are the specs on these connectors.

EDIT, I mistakenly stated this and have removed. I was looking at the wrong measurement. Please ignore: EZ Robot site says 1.5mm. Is that the pin spacing? So would I look for a 1.5mm, 6 pin connector? But what type?See post # 7 for the correct size and pitch. Thanks Jeremie.
Thanks!

Jeremie, you say the connector is a PHStyle. I'm a little confused and simply looking for info. Ez robot store says the camera cable is 1.5 but that's a ZH style according to this I found: PH 2.00 mm (0.079 in) ZH 1.50 mm (0.059 in)
Can you confirm? Thanks!
It's definitely JST-PH 2.0mm pitch.
Thanks Jeremie. Understood. Thanks for stepping in and helping.
Hey @Dave Where did you see the pitch being 1.5mm? I couldn't find it.
@Jeremie. Sorry brother. I was mistaken about this info being on the EZ Robot site. There is no mention of the type and pitch of this connector on on the Camera Cable EZ Robot's website. I was looking at the wrong spec and not noticing the difference between MM and CM. Blame it on my Imperial Measurement upbringing and my dependence on it. Sorry if this caused you any inconvenience.
Hey, no prob @Dave I figured that might have been the case. Funny enough, I had planned on updating the camera product descriptions very soon, this gives me the incentive to get it done right away!

hope that helps
you can also find crimpers there .
That's very much like the connector kit I picked up at local electronics supply store here, for about $18 . I alsp plan on extending the 4 pin JST for the RGB displays. I've had luck with the I2C still working even at a few feet.
