Twisted Pair? Ever see "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" or "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure"? Oh, wait, that dongle is an AAUI to 10Base-T Ethernet Transceiver. Most of the Quadras and early PowerMacs plus a few NuBus and apple ][ Ethernet cards had an AAUI connector to which could be attached dongles for 10Base-T (RJ-45 jack), 10Base-2 (BNC), Token Ring or other network connections. AAUI = Apple AUI AUI = Attachment Unit Interface which uses a DB-15 female connection that you DO NOT want to mix up with a Mac monitor or a PC joystick/MIDI connection. ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
