Hi
I just did a little more searching on the net.
It has a seperate Ethernet card that I'm sure is 10base. It has
the 8 pin RJ45, coax and connector to a eithernet driver for the old
triax cable.
It seems that this was intended to be a network analyser machine.
I see various similar machines on ebay. It was called a Network Sniffer.
I wouldn't know 850nm from 1300nm. The optical ports are retangular,
about 1.5x3/8 in.
I picked it up because it has a nice 486 that I can run my EP10
programmer from that is more compact than my desk top and monitor.
It has a 400Meg HD and color LCD.
A similar machine is ebay #330383454040 but with a different ethernet
card.
The keyboard is flakey ( multiple letters on some keys ) but
I can clean these up.

Hi
Does anyone need an EISA optical link card set.
<snip>
It is a two card set with an in/out optical connector
on each board and what looks like a regular 6 pin
eithernet on one board.
While I'm not interested, can you please clarify what it is that you have?
Is this an ethernet card? If so, is it a 10base-FL card? There was
also an older FOIRL standard. Is it 100base-FX/SX ? Multimode 850nm or
1300nm optics?
Ethernet typically has an RJ45, which is an 8-pin modular connector.
Four pins are active for 10mb and 100mb on copper, pins 1&2 and 3&6.
Thanks
Keith
