@pokey77. so when you were running an ER you got a lot of patients that had sustained burns from EtherRegen?
Etheregen - doesn't seem right that it gets so hot, dangerous? Unpredictable?
This network device as glorious as it may be gets extremely hot, almost burning to the touch. Something doesn't seem right about that.
Is there a good alternative to using this thing, it was about $600 which isn't cheap. Optical connectivity which I like seems to be a good thing.
Frankly I'm not sure what the value is it with it vs something else that may be operationally more healthy to use. So I disconnected it because the heat level seems kind of dangerous. I have no confidence that it will Control itself and get absolutely and dangerously too hot in the future.

Recently undergoing a lounge renovation, the audio system was dismantled including the EtherRegen. I found with great difficulty to unplug the Ethernet cable, the jack had a distorted plastic case and wouldn't disconnect. Spent several minutes trying to dislodge, but eventually came out. The rj45 case felt brittle, most likely due to the heat. The next rj45 goes in will have to cope with an ambient of 80C to avoid the same drama. I just wonder how the tiny connections hold up... |
