checking my stores and came across these lovely items:
BNC Plug to suit thin Ethernet Cable - as use for 10Base2 Networks with 50Ohm Co-Ax cable by me but probably suit other appications
Got about 25 of them and all brand new still in the RS bags
Strain Boots - for above - about 15 x Green and 10 x Black
T-Pieces to suit above again - x 3
50 Ohm BNC Terminator - only 1 of these
4 x Wall plates with pair of round holes - for wall-mounted 10Base2 outlets
I expect demand to be high , so first come first served  _________________ If you have a son, DO NOT name him after a verb ....

You're right there I just hate chucking stuff away when it is still technically ok - and it wasn't cheap at the time either !!!

ahh the brings back memories, I was once a junior IT engineer, guess who had to install trunking, BNC cabling & cards. Many a local Estate Agent and small business got their first Novell network setup with that.
One small point, that list wouldn't work without a 2nd terminator!
I'll stick with my lovely 100bps Cat5 & WiFi thanks.
Anyone used TokenRing? If BNC is from the Ark, then TokenRing is positively prehistoric! No fancy graphics with 4mbps to the client from a 16mpbs backbone hehe! _________________ Don't buy a dwarf with learning difficulties,

But at least you could dig a hole with a JCB and still have the network carry on with Token Ring.
And that was just about the only argument anyonecould put forward for having it
and very true about the terminator - spare ones used to be rare as hens teeth then 10Base-2 was all the rage
Oh - I also still have the crimping tool for the connectors - I actually forgot what it was for it is so long since I used it  _________________ If you have a son, DO NOT name him after a verb ....
