Crap. Better mark the rg58 as "return to sender".

I'm kinda bummed that I've got an IRMA 3270 card and nothing to to connect it to.
Come on over!
So how do I get there via that little BNC connector? :)
Really big spool of
RG-58. If you ask the UPS guy nicely,
I'm sure he'd let you hold one end of the cable while he
drives over... just make sure you do surface shipping.
NO NO NO NO NO! RG58 is
50ohm, 3270 is 93 Ohm so RG63....

You can use 50 Ohm over short distances but the cables should do 1.5
MBits over, think 1500Yds
You can also get Baluns to allow you to run it over UTP CAT1 or higher....
