Yup -- this is one of the lesser-known advantages of the RK11-C over the later controllers.  Another being the theoretical ability to hook up a blinkenlights panel to slots 31 and 32 rows A and B :-)

Also missing from that eBay listing, BTW: the usually accompanying H720-E to power the thing.  I wonder if that will be or has been listed separately?
