WAG from the name: it's a widget to connect a 98x5 into an HP Shared
Resource Management (SRM) network. I vaguely recall that there was a
coaxial SRM bus cable, and some SRM interfaces had the BNC connector
for the bus cable while others had a 50-pin Amphenol connector and
expected to have a transceiver-like device between the Amphenol connector
and the coax.
I've read about this stuff in manuals, but never used it or even seen
it in use. And I didn't know you could hook a 98x5 up to it, my
readings about it have been in the context of HP9000 series 200 and
300 systems.
