The aux power connector should only be required if FXS modules are used. 
  If this card won't work for you, I can highly recommend the Rhino 8 
port card.  I have several of these in production on net5501's.  I also 
have a net5501 with a Rhino 24 port card installed.  I am using a 5a 
non-soekris supplied power supply (12v) to power the net5501.
