Thanks...
I am currently using an Imagewriter printer cable to hook up one
device, and that
seems to work ok, and there is no electronics there.. Perhaps the
transformers are
for some safety - decoupling purpose?

I've never had a real Farallon PhoneTalk unit so I don't know, but I
suspect it has some real electronics inside, or a hybrid transformer
like LocalTalk boxes. However, if you're starting from scratch, you
might look at the CapNet subsitute. The first link Google finds for
"capnet localtalk" will find a copy of the document I originally saw
several years ago, at http://www.jagshouse.com/localtalk.html
