Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] About MIMO-cable

[Josh Blum]

The serdes cable does not currently work with UHD other than to share 
ref clocks. I am currently (as I type this email) working on the FPGA 
routing logic to use the mimo cable with UHD. Don't hold your breath, 
but I am attempting to get it working before the holiday next week.
