Signal and CTC Circuit Boards

Here are photos of three boards I had made for ease in building and controlling signals as well as wiring my CTC board.
Signal Control Circuit.  8 bits via CAT5 cable controls 12 LEDs in four signal heads.  Can therefore control an OS section with a two three color signal heads for each route and one two head three color signal for the point end of the turnout.

Breakout board route eight wires from a CAT5 cable to eight screw terminals.  Many uses when using CAT5 rather than single wires or phone cables.

Same breakout board but with Molex connector which allows connection to DIN24, DIN32, DOUT24, DOUT32, or SMINI boards.  Eliminates building molex connectors and crimping molex pins.
