Here are my devices:
Internal SCSI Zip: 5VDC 800mA
Farallon Etherwave: 12VDC 250mA
3Com Hub: *8VAC* 1A
Linksys Router: 5VDC 2.5A
If I remove the components from their cases I believe I can get it to all fit inside. The idea I had was to run an 8-conductor cable from the former power plug-in hole on the LC to a box on the floor. This would preserve the original power switch/cord configuration. 2 for the switch, 2 for 5V, 2 for 12V, and 2 for 8VAC.
What I really want to do is preserve the hole for the SCSI port, and use a DB-25 to DB-25 to connect the unit to my Plus, also preserve the ADB hole but use it to connect serial-to-serial.
Internally, I would connect serial to my Etherwave, connect the etherwave to the hub, and the hub to the router. I want to make some itty-bitty patch cords so all the unused ports can be made external (for hooking up future machines perhaps)
This would give me (on the back panel), Power in, switch, 3 10T ports, the scsi interface, the serial interface, 4 100T ports, and the WAN port.
I want to leave the 10T ports external because that would be the only way to hook up other old macs that can't auto-negotiate with new hardware.
