    MESA hardware that uses Eithernet instead of 5i25 and DB25 cable?

    Is there a new piece of hardware that uses eithernet instead of the "super serial" cable
    in the typical 5i25-7i77 connection?

    You can use a 7I92 (Ethernet) instead of a 5I25 (PCI ) or 6I25 (PCIE) with a 7I77

    Thanks,
    Is the 7i92 supported in Pncconf at this point?
    If not currently, are there plans to include it in the future?

    Ethernet cards rely on RT-Preempt and LinuxCNC-uspace. I don't see that option in Pncconf.
