## Description

#### What is it?
UBOB, the Universal Breakout Board is a fun little board that breaks out the signal lines for RJ45 (8p8c) and RJ50 (10p10c) cables.

** Specifications **

- Can be used to break out both RJ45 and RJ50 cables. The board shows break outs for both.
- Can add two 2 x 5 2.54mm IDC headers to translate between RJ45/50 cables and ribbon cables.
- 10 terminal screw terminal breaks out either the IDC or RJ45/50 cables
- One 1 x 10 2.54mm header allows connections to Sainsmart relays, prototyping boards and more.
- Provided as a DIY kit only.

#### Why did you make it?
I wasn't particularly happy with the other breakout boards I was using.  Existing breakout boards for plugging an RJ45/50 jack into a prototype board were not mechanically strong.  Then I found I was buying different types of boards for different applications.  Finally, I really didn't have a good solution for connecting my Sainsmart relay boards to my Raspberry Pi or my Mini I/O extender boards.

So, I decided to create my own board that would do it all.  The Universal Breakout Board is simple but allows for a lot of versatility in bridging different cabling needs.  You can go from single wires to a ribbon cable or RJ45/50 cables.
