Default VAG COM interface cable

Hello.
I own a:
2004 Audi A8 L 4.2 Quattro (Canada)
I want to run the VCDS from Ross-Tech ver. 12.12.0 Lite.
my computer runs: windows Home Pro

What I am needing advice on is what interface cable I would need
and any other special set up instructions you might know of.
(just want to tinker)

Buy this one. It comes with full licence. You will need it if you plan to keep your A8 any longer.
