Hi,
does anybody know something about the DEC DESPO-A BNC Ethernet
Transceiver?
Its a small box (about 115*60*35 mm) with a BNC connector and a
MMJ connector on the otherside. And ther is a cable wich on one
side has the MMJ and on the other side a big black connector
(don't know the name) which I have seen at token ring MUAs only.
I haven't seen those token ring connectors for ethernet,
and no BNC connectors on token rings. So I am a little
bit confused about the purpose of these boxes. Looks like
a ethernet/tokenring bridge but I don't believe this.
Regards,
Lipo

My GUESS is it's either an Ethernet Transceiver that plugs to IBM wired
Token Ring Cat 3 cables so you don't have to rewire a site or some kind
of DEC Token Ring transceiver.
Are you sure it's an MMJ and not an RJ45?
