Me too Martin. I made this distribution box for my scopes to reduce the cabling that’s dangling down from the OTA. There’s only 2 cables ( power and guide ) that go to the box. It then has 2x 7.6v regulated ports for my DSLR and Guider. 2x USB ports that I use for my dew straps. 1 x 12v port for my mirror fan. RJ12 and RJ45 ports for guide controller and guiding cable. All of the OTA wiring can then be nice and short and tidy and can be left connected even when I remove the OTA from the mount. It makes setup quick and easy in the dark too.
