Project box for Octo card and the rca inputs?

Post by tilimil » Wed Nov 22, 2017 1:15 am

Has anyone built an enclosure for the RPI and the octo inputs/outputs? Would love it if there was something ready made. Or if someone already has a good solution, pics and details would be much appreciated!

Thanks.

I'm planning on using frontpanelexpress.com to make a box exposing the Ethernet + USB + HDMI connector (via extension cable) and the RCA connectors of course (+ routing WiFi antenna outside the box).

Cutouts for the RCAs and mounting screws ?

I don't see any way to mount this thing with screws. But Ive never done anything like this so maybe I'm missing something obvious. Appreciate any pointers you can give.

The holes in between the RCAs have a plastic back end, so screws that cut into plastic will work. On the input there are two holes, on the output there are three. Do you see what I mean ?
