MicroTab Ethernet is not Neutrik Ethercon friendly!!

jimkarnesMember

HI,

We tend to use Neutrik ethercon connectors on our ethernet cables as they are much more robust and seeing that the MicroTab display uses the female version of this plug we were very surprised. BUT the display we have they failed to install the small thumb tab that allows you to release the XLR style barrel after you make the connection. It snaps in great, but once in, no easy way to release without taking the whole assembly apart!!!

So, no thumb release, no using the excellent Neutrik Ethercon connectors!

Hopefully they will fix this in the near future as it took us over an hour to fix so we could disconnect the network cable.

I've been there, done that...in the same situation as we love Ethercon...thankfully, you can usually remove the Ethercon parts and with a small screw driver, release the cable leaving the metal Ethercon boot in the hardware, but still very frustrating.
