Extension Cable for MRC Prodigy Advance Squared
Posted by TimThomas on Friday, November 20, 2009 3:10 PM
Hi all, Does anyone know what type of cable is used between the throttle and power station on the MRC PAS? I think I remember it being an RJ-12? Is this correct? If so, have any of you made your own extension cable? Thanks Tim

 I've made several cables, they are cat 5 cable with RJ45 plugs. Computer ethernet cables are identical, you can find them at Lowes, Home Depot, or any store that sells computers.
