Rated 5 out of 5

Great Replacement for earlier versions

This is a good replacement for the earlier version that had the RJ-45 port. It has a built-in USB to RS-232 converter / adapter so it is compatible with Ascom drivers which connect via COM ports. You can also update the firmware through the port. The port requires a USB mini cable.
