Hi, All,
I have a few DEC BC13J-08, new-in-bag, and not sure if I'd ever use
any. I'm guessing there was some form of DEC Mux or terminal server
that used RJ45s, but that gear would be out of the range of what I
have worked with (I'm quite familiar with DZ11s, DMF32s, Emulex CS21s,
etc)
All the DEC-compatible modular serial gear I have is mid-1980s Nevada
Western RJ11 stuff. I have more modern Cisco RJ45 serial stuff,
naturally, but all I could find on the 'net about the DEC BC13J-08 was
offers to sell (for about $15-$30 each!) Obviously I could open a bag
and run the eight lines with a continuity checker, but it'd be nice to
find some docs to save the time.
Thanks for any insight as to what these were used with.
