Ric,
Here are some pics of the "limited edition IIS interface box". In the top I have three of the Shoestring products (GPUSB, FCUSB and DSUSB), a serial to USB adaptor, a USB2 hub and a 4x12V outlet vercro'd to the tray. I use this hub to connect the 400D, the DSI and/or the Neximage.
The wiring drops through the tray to the underside where I have another 4 port USB powered hub permanently wired to the interface devices.
In the bottom of the box I have a 240V powerboard and a 240V/12V powersupply.
I therefore have only a few connections to make - 240V, 2xUSB into laptop and the connections to the mount/camera. All the wiring from the mount/camera terminate in the box so less wires to trip over.
I've also wrapped the two 400D cables together in a spiral plastic cable tidy.
Pete
