    SE/30 Power Cable Connector Part Numbers

    To make a longer version of the silly short cable of the SE/30 (and likely SE) that goes between the motherboard and the analog board, these are the molex connector parts. You can find these are on Digikey, Mouser, etc. To make the cable, you want the Receptacle and the Receptacle Pins. I've...

    SE/30 Asante MacCon help

    I sure do! I'd never crimped molex before, I found a nice crimper for about $20 on Amazon which got the job done nicely. Just don't use 600v 18awg wire like I did or you will not have a fun time crimping. Use 300v wire instead. analogboard<->motherboard:     I have built this cable and...

    SE/30 Asante MacCon help

    SE/30 Asante MacCon help

    On the RPI I did "ethtool -s eth0 speed 10 duplex half autoneg off". Doing this makes me lose auto mdix, so a crossover cable is required. I connected with a crossover cable to the rpi with the forced media settings and I get the same result.

    SE/30 Asante MacCon help

    Greetings, This is my first post on this excellent forum. The content here was extremely helpful for me to recap my SE/30. "Mac Con for IISi SE/30. P/N 09-00005-00 REV. C2" Background I acquired an SE/30 with an Asante MacCon card installed on eBay a few months ago. I recapped the...
