[sdiy] Rugged USB connectors in an XLR form factor

[Didrik Madheden]

Thank you for jogging my memory, turning on my lightbulb and making my
penny drop. It was the name Neutrik that I heard way back when, but
couldn't remember or find again now.

And a side note about RS Electronics. I've heard multiple people also say
they were blocked from accessing it lately, unrelated to me sending a link
to them. Maybe RS is trying stop bots from scraping the site and real users
getting blocked is just collateral damage.
