The FT-818 ( and FT-817) use a serial port with an 8 pin mini-DIN connector
at the radio end.  The same cable can be used for programming and rig
control.

The official Yaesu part number is CT-62.  The CT-62 has an RS-232 serial
connector on the computer end, and you will need a USB to serial adapter as
well with that cable.

I use the valley enterprises cable. This cable includes the USB to serial
adapter.

 There are other cable options out there.
