I looked a year ago and it was disappointed how little I could find. I shelved a modular panel project idea over it. |

There is none. That is why I love mentioning it all the time. you can't get in the door with pogo pins for less than $50. for all the connections for a whole cp probably more like $75. At that point a couple of dsub 25's off an old printer start to look pretty nice. |

I hear ya loud and clear, man. Maybe someday someone will produce these. |

My local electronics junkyard sells these ATX extension cables for $1. Its the cheapest and best way to make a cable disconnect. I've used them in some modular electronics projects. Its a simple but very effective way to quick disconnect a multiwire device. Just cut the middle wires and you have a 24 wires to play with. They are available online at newegg or ebay.. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/24-pin-atx-extension-cable |
