Re: [OT] RJ45 splitters wanted

The patch lead is a possibility if I can't find anything else but it's

I did forget to mention that I would prefer the vertical arrangement
outlets to be inline and above the existing socket - not displaced below
if possible - gosh - getting really finicky now but at least I don't
care about the colour !
