Subject: Re: Twinax (was Re: Last run at the local Uni Surplus for a

Is constructing the adapter an option?
Might be. Depends what's in it.
Twinax connectors can be had readily, at least on this
side of the ocean.
I think I have some here somewhere. Only need one or two.
I actually have one of the adapter boxes you're
talking about (for my
AS/400); I'd be
happy to crack it open and investigate its innards for
you.
If you can do so without damage, I'd appreciate it. IBM implied it was more
than just a cable interface,
but they won't actually tell you what it does. I'd only need the pinouts
for terminal 0 to start with so I had a console.
