So I got a new case. Intellijel 7u 104HP. It has 28 slots on the power board but in my design of the rack I have 29 modules.
ModularGrid Rack

So what combo of flying buss cables would you use for this and which modules would you put on those busses.

Which modules would you connect to the flying buss cable(s) or does it not matter?


hello. you can connect them all...if your power can handle it. I use the Koma BusBoard Buddy myself to split one into 3 connections.


Ahh thise look great cheers. I realised I only actually would need one as the case actually can do 28 modules and I have 29 lol. Ill prob just chop a ribbon though.

what do you mean by 'chop a ribbon'? I wouldn't cut one...

the simplest way to do what you want is to crimp an extra idc connector onto a longer existing ribbon cable... videos available on youtube - no need for specialist equiment - just the 10 pin idc connector & some gentle even pressure, from a vice (or a large book)... just make sure you have the connector the right way round (triangle to red line) and leave plenty of slack...

nb buying the idc connector may cost nearly as much as the pre-made cable, if that's all you are buying, & if you are in any way nervous about this... just spend the few quid on the pre-made cable...

Utility modules are the dull polish that makes the shiny modules actually shine!!!

Ha ha too late I already chopped an old flying buss cable ribbon down to just two. I had 28 power and 29 modules. Works a treat. The Koma BusBoard Buddy suggested by ThierryH would have been more elagent (less cables) but this works the same.
