Greetings,
You may look into the Yaesu SCU-17.? It is compatible with the FT-8x7 series radios and provides both CAT control and sound card interface for FT8 and other data modes.
I've been using it with the FT-897 and FT-950 to good success. It comes with the USB cable to connect to the computer along with a cable for the CAT control and one for data.
Good luck

I¡¯d like to use my non-D 857 with HRD in the field. I¡¯ve found several cables online, but it¡¯s hard to judge actual quality from a web listing.
I turn to the hive mind here ¡ª what¡¯s the most popular cable? Will the RT Systems cable work with their programming software AND serve as a CAT cable with HRD?
Thanks.
