Honeycomb Alpha Yoke's vulnerable RJ45 port

Featured Replies

This seems to be the primary vulnerability with this yoke near as I can tell.  Their new XPC yoke apparently still retains this cable connection from base to handle.  If you own this yoke have you done anything to reinforce this or otherwise reduce its risk as a potential failure site?  I'm very interested in the XPC yoke but only if there is a solid solution to this issue.

If you have the HC Alpha Yoke have you had any troubles with this port?  Troubles with anything else?  If you had troubles were you able to get support from Honeycomb?  Their lack of CS is legendary it would appear.

Thanks in advance for your insights.

Thanks.  Can you imagine how to reinforce the connections to reduce risk of a problem?
