I understand you can convert a PRA card on a oxo from T2 to DASS by resoldering the jumpers on the board, is this correct ?

Also i will need a RJ45 to balum adapter, i have ordered one but they are out of order. Does anybody know the pin outs/construction of the adaptor so i could make one myself ?

Regards

This is correct. They are called Citroen Straps. Looking at the board from front to back, you have four straps (1-first one, 2, 3, 4-last one).

T2 - no solders
T1 - solder on strap 1
T1-CAS - solder on strap 2 and 3
DLT2 - solder on strap 2
DASS2 - solder on strap 3
PMC-R2 - solder on strap 4

Best regards.

If the cable you are using is no longer than 2 to 5 meters, you can use a straight cable until get the balun.

the pins you use are 1&2 and 4&5
