Your kinda screwed if the seller didn't supply them with the unit. You'll probably have to make something yourself.

look into some of the red connectors available at a big box home improvement store or a local electrical supply house.  I've found with a little bit of pinching on those connections you can get it to connect.  Most of my bitfury cards had the barrel connections as well

I'm having a difficult time making heads or tails out of that photo. Are you sure these are standard Bitfury rigs from MegaBigPower or BitfuryStrikesBack?

My 1st gen unit had screw terminals and 2 gen units had PCI-e connectors. The photo looks like those weird chinese power connectors they had on old ASICMiner Blades.

In this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615118.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615118.0), there's a link to power connectors like those. However those are 2-pin and for V1 boards. You seem to have V2 (as your green blocks looks like 2 3-pin connectors, instead of 2 2-pin), and I'm not sure but it looks like these connectors http://www.dx.com/p/3-pin-curved-screw-terminal-block-connectors-green-20-piece-pack-146623#.U-gCddaVvVM (http://www.dx.com/p/3-pin-curved-screw-terminal-block-connectors-green-20-piece-pack-146623#.U-gCddaVvVM) might be what you're looking for.

Thank for your answer
Do you think i can  put 2*2 pin connector instead of 1*6 pin ?
And witch port I need to connect the Bitfury  controller data in or data out?

I think what you need is 2x 3-pin connectors, not 1x 6-pin (notice on the board 3 are marked GND and 3 marked VCC). As far as the data cable, I'm not certain on that at the moment. I'll try to remember to find out and post later.
