Finally got two JCAT Net Card FEMTO, thanks to @Thuan. Now the FEMTO trio is complete and the result is impressive. I wonder what colleagues who switched to XE are experiencing, but for now my initial project is finished (after years!) and delivering an incredible result. I'm very satisfied, thanks also to @Marcin and his great dedication.
