Marc... I got Wren to do up a custom one for me (for the AV8R). All I found commercially was male/male ends. You can buy an femal/female adapter (which I did - twice ) but it didn't work. The one from Wren worked first time....
Hey Wayne,
That's due to the way the network cables are wired up. If you do a simple resistance test on the leads, you'll see that the inputs are not necessarily linked to the outputs you expect. Bring the parts to Princeton later this year and I'll re-wire them for you if you like, assuming we can carefully break open the adaptor casing...

I've seen the necessary components here in Vancouver for a few bucks only... I'm sure most good quality electronics shops would have the necessary parts to make this cable for no more than pocket change.
