This card (bare-board) is available from Marshall Oldham [[1]]

for $20.00 USD. It uses all standard thru-hole parts that takes very

little specialized skils to construct.

As you can see, the card is perforated into 2 separate pieces.

One side (the "A" side) is an interface between the DMK URI

and the Kenwood TMG-707A. The other side (the "B" side) is an

interface between the 4 port PCI CARD and the

Kenwood TMG-707A.

Here is an example of a fully-constructed "A" side:

.

It plugs directly into the end of the URI with the 25 pin connector,

and a serial port on your PC device with the 9 pin D-shell connector.

Here is an example of a fully-constructed "B" side:

.

Its 8 pin modular jack goes to a shielded straight-thru modular

cable to a port on the 4 port PCI card.

Both sides use a 6 pin Male to Male mini-DIN cable with low profile

connectors, available from L-Com, to connect to the TMG-707A.

numbers may be accessed here.

Note: This Bill of Materials is for the BOTH halves of the board.

If you dont intend to use both halves, then dont buy the parts for

the half you dont want.
