Question is, can two AUI-male connecting converters be
connected
together with an appropriate cabelling, like you can do with
RJ45/10bT, or must a person always use a hub/repeater box?
I once tried to do this kind of "crossover" AUI, and never did manage
to make it work. I suspect it has something to do with AUI being a
half-duplex interface and expecting to hear on the RX wires the signal
it's transmitting on the TX wires.
