Title: UEXT cable with female to male connectors?
Post by: slayvin on March 23, 2014, 01:31:19 PM
Hello,

I'd like to add a MOD-WIFI to my A20, but it seems that the wifi module comes with a female UEXT connector.
The issue is that I want to fit the board and the module in a small plastic case... Because of this, I can't connect the module directly to the board, otherwise it wouldn't fit (the module would stand "vertically"). I was wondering if I could connect the module to the board through a UEXT cable with a female and a male connector? Unfortunately it doesn't seem to exist. Where can I find this product?

What you're looking for is one of these to fit on the end of the cable so that you have a male and a female.

Ok, so I guess I'll have to build that cable by myself.
Thanks for the info!
