Hello there, first time poster here
My question is about the 6 pins used for the IDC cable that connects Teensy 4.1 to a magnetic ethernet jack.
Basically if I connect the Teensy 4.1 to my own baseboard via single row female pin headers (0.1") AND connect the ethernet jack via 2x3 female headers (2mm) - instead of ribbon cable - will there be enough clearance to insert both? It looks quite close.
Secondly, I will be placing the ethernet jack on my base board as close to the socket for the Teensy as possible. I'm sure it will be a better connection than the IDC ribbon cable. Do I need to be overly concerned about trace widths / interference of my traces? I'm sure the answer is no, but wanted to check if anyone else can comment on this.
Many thanks!
