Is it just me or is someone else having problems with the ethernet port of the sextant? There is very little space for the rj45 jack, the cable gets very tight and comes to break the rj45 plug.
This kind of devices should be resilient to some rough handling, as maintenance is usually done in a communications tower hanging 30m from the ground.
Having the connector tab upside would make it much easier to handle.
Newer production batch will have glue around the connector, for added strenght. Depending on the cable, if you can’t bend it enough, I recommend drilling an exit hole in front of the connector, this way, cable will not be required to bend. We are working on improved design for this product.
I think it would be easier to handle if it was in the other way (I enclose a picture to make it clear). The SEXTANT-G is very compact, in any case, and there is little room for fat fingers
