SSRez

Why Another SSR?

Sean's SSRoz is a very good board. It is compact and functions great. However, it was not designed with a specific enclosure in mind. The intial move towards the SSRez involved changing the layout to fit the TA-200 Telephone Demarc Enclosure from www.yourbroadbandstore.com.

In order to keep the board to a min size, the SSRoz made all the neutral connections off board. So, take all the neutrals and connect them with a large wire nut (five 16AWG neutrals!) Once connected, where does the massive chuck of wire go? This lead to adding terminals for the neutrals...now this is not inexpensive. The cost was offset in part by removing the vertical fuseholder and replacing it with inexpensive fuse clips.

Lastly, the RJ45 connecter could be difficult to remove with the locking pin in a tight corner. A vertical RJ45 jack could make this so much easier.

While changing every thing around, the power traces were beefed up a bit to allow a slightly higher power throughput. This replaces the 5A fuse with a 7A one.

so....start out trying to change one problem..and end up with a whole new layout!

Here is a prototype of the SSRez. There have been some minor changes that are to be documented soon.
