  I've also got an Emulex P800 which looks like a
MAU but it could be a 
 terminal server. Its pretty cool is says "Performance 8000", has dual 
 Ethernet connections on the back (AUI), dual power supplies, and what looks 
 like 12 DB25 ports (I can't imagine a fault tolerant terminal server, but 
 there you go. Free to a home somewhere. 
  The Emulex "Performance 4000", at least, is indeed a terminal server.

  Finally I've got a couple DEC LanBridges (100 and
a 150), they look like 
 straight bridges but they just have two AUI connectors. Perhaps they do 
 filtering or something? 
  The LANbridge 100 and 150 do MAC-level bridging.  I'm told they
support spanning tree.  I've used many of them to segregate networks;
they've always served me well.
