One for collectors of unusual IT antiquities.

Quite possibly the ugliest (if not rarest) device to connect a computer to an Ethernet network.

Just one offered in this auction however I have found that I actually have hoarded twenty or more of the same! So .... let's see if there is ANYONE out there who needs/wants to add this to their collection - If only to say that they have one!

(There was zero interest in my previous offering for ten)

Please note: this one comes in original sealed AMP packaging.

They go back to the late 1980s. Quite popular in USA but there were few corporates here that took on this particular variety of networking. It was of the "Thin Wire" variety, expensive to install and had limited speed and band width.

They were priced around $40 each when new!

I'll let the pics do the talking.

As ever comments and questions are welcome.
