Hi,

 

I have a Netduino Plus and a Seeedstudio GPRS shield. Now I want to put the stuff into a nice box.

The problem I have is that I want to somehow "seal" the box but it should be possible to change the SD-card and SIM-card without opening the box. So a little bit more comfortable.

 

Does anyone know if there are some extension cables for the SD and SIM card with flexible cables (these yellow/orange plastic-paper-like cables)?

For the SD card a perfect solution would be a normal full-size SD card slot -> micro SD card extension.

 

Shops in the U.S. are ok, but Europe would be better :-)

 

Thanks in advance

I googled "sim card extender" and quite a few came up, that look like exactly what you're talking about

Hi thanks, now I got a Swedish Website *happy* before it was always some asian websites.

So, now I found also an SD Card to micro SD with a short flexible cable.

The shop I found is a german one, but the product itself should also be available anywhere, since DeLock is also available at Amazon

Currently I understand N+2 can only support up to 2G microSD.

Just like to check, does that means with this adapter, we can use >2G SD card?

Hi alex,

SD cards generally only go up to 2GB (although there were a few sometimes-compliant 4GB cards). SDHC is the thing that's not available in the official firmware. This is something we are working through, and community member KodeDaemon has submitted quite a bit of code to help enable support for larger cards. Chris

Probably there is no simple answer to this, but I'll ask anyway.

 

Why is it so hard to support SDHC?

 

KodeDaemon and others have been looking at this problem for years now. I imagine there is something horrible about SDHC or they would have shipped something a long time ago.
