I need an ethernet converter between 10base2 and
100baseT.
I looked in the attic and discovered I already had the solution. I have a
DEChub 90
and a DECrepeater 90T-16. Plug the DECrepeater and DECserver into
the DEChub and I get my DECserver on a 10MB network that is connected to
100baseT (via the DECrepeater) and 10base2 (via the DEChub) networks.
The DEChub power supply fan is kind of noisy, so I need to look into that.
I think I need to get an old rack mounted hub/switch that has all the
conversions.
I also think that I need to keep spares in mind a bit more.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
