I have one Robotiq Hand-E Gripper and one UR5e. I would like to connect the Gripper over the Wrist I/O.  
I sadly need an adapter for this.  
Hand E has a 5 pin and the UR5e has an 8 pin. Is there even an Adapter for this?

You will need the Hand-E I/O coupling kit.

_Part I/O Coupling Kit (IO-CPL-UR-CB-KIT) from Robtique._

I have attached a diagram from their manual to allow you to make some sense of this.
