Hello,

I was wondering if any IPEX Cable will suffice to replace for the cpu_rst. I'm asking this because it just looks like marketing of some resellers to say it is from Team Xecuter. Another reason is that the Dutch reseller doesn't have it anyways.

Kind regards,

Any wire will do. I usually like to use these shielded cables I have gotten out of laptops over the years. They are exactly like the ipex but the connector is too big so I have to cut it off and ground the shielding myself and the wire is heavier gauge than the ipex cpu-rst that TX sells. They give me the best performance hands down.

TX didn't develop the IPEX cable. In fact I believe that "IPEX" refers to either the type of connector or it's the brand name of the connector. The cable itself is just standard low loss COAX cable which is small in diameter. If you look hard enough you can find a cable supplier that will cut a length of it for you.
