NXT & EV3 (23 parts)

The NXT and EV3 generations of LEGO Mindstorms include a range of accessories that connect to an intelligent hub.

NXT Motors and Accessories work with both NXT & EV3 Hubs, but EV3 Motors and Accessories do not work with an NXT Hub.

The cables used to connect NXT/EV3 hubs and accessories use a modified RJ12 connector with the latch offset to the left.
