OK, next question.
I've acquired a few Asante FriendlyNet Thin Adaptors. These are little
boxes about the size and shape of old Mac transceivers -- about 4" long, 2"
wide, 1 1/4" thick. One end has an RJ45; the other has a BNC sticking out
each side:
Actually these just came up on comp.os.vms, of all places, a few days ago.
Aparently Asante just used the RJ45 to connect them to their Ethernet card.
While it looks like it should be a 10BaseT-to-10Base2 converter it
apparently isn't.
