Yeah, Allied Telesyn/Telesis made (and still makes!) really decent hardware
at a midrange price. I often recommend their gigabit and PoE switches for
cost-sensitive projects, especially where management isn't really needed.
Thanks,

made a "multi port tap" that provided four AUI ports off a
single Ethernet tap. I don't know if it was a repeater/hub inside, or
what.
It was much smaller than a DELNI or DEREP.
Pretty sure I know the device you're talking about and I think it was
a hub internally. I liked it a lot better than the DELNI.
Come to think of it, I liked most of Allied Telesyn's stuff. I still have
a 10Mbit hub of theirs handling the low speed systems and the 10b2 segment
going to the HP 9000, and a whole mess of the transceivers which are
periodically useful on AUI-only systems.
