So to be clear this won’t work? I’ve never heard of a ediabas loaded cable before. Thanks for the help

This particular cable will not have ediabas loaded, no. However, you can load ediabas onto that cables ATmega 162 microprocessor yourself. It's no rocket science.
First, you need to check if it has a real FT232R chip on it. Or at least FT recognizes it as real, with FT_Prog. If it does, then you are all set.
Then follow a diy (there are plenty online), like this:

First you will need to buy AVR programmer (USBasp) for like 5 bucks or adruino (more expensive) and some jumper cables. And a soldering iron, if you don't have one.
That way you are 100% sure that the cable is ok and there is no need to guess which one to buy.
I mean, if you cannot do this then better not start messing with your ECU.
