Will one of the premade RJ45 cables work with the VGC VR-N7500 VHF&UHF dual band mobile radio?
Here’s the pinout from manual:
This doesn’t match any of the store cables at this time, but if you want to homebrew one it will look like this:
RJ-45 pin #3 (GND) → 3.5mm TRRS sleeve (GND)
RJ-45 pin #5 (PTT) → 3.5mm TRRS ring 2 (RIG_PTT)
RJ-45 pin #7 (AFOUT) → 3.5mm TRRS tip (RIG_AFOUT)
RJ-45 pin #8 (AFOUT) → 3.5mm TRRS ring 1 (RIG_AFIN)
Extra credit serial side (needs additional research):
RJ-45 pin #1 (TXD) → 3.5mm TRRS ring 1 (RIG_TXD)
RJ-45 pin #2 (RXD) → 3.5mm TRRS tip (RIG_RXD)
RJ-45 pin #3 (GND) → 3.5mm TRRS sleeve (GND)
Please report your results if you decide to give it a go.

Thank you!
Any update on the serial side? Freq control or programming would be awesome.
