Twinax 5250 interface board

Hi,

Maybe you’re one of those people who is not afraid to use a soldering iron. And maybe you just have to have an old 5250 terminal laying around. Where the keys go clicke-ty-click. And you would love to hook this terminal up to, let’s say, a Linux box, or a raspberry pi?

Than it’s good to know that someone has already done the hard work for you. GitHub user Inmbolmie has designed a board that allows a twinax terminal to connect over UBS.

Well now, isn’t that nice! All the info can be found at this url.

Enjoy!
