Everyone and their mom has a #Wifi232 to get their #VintageComputer online, but I wounder if there's a #wired (#LAN) option instead.

Background: In my area, 2,4 GHz WiFi is so overcrowded that it's basically unuseable and also because Ethernet is more reliable.

I don't mind if it looks like a MAU but with like a unmanaged 4-port Gigiabit Switch for #10Base2 / #10Base5 - lookalike "passthrough" and internal 10 MBit/s port so it can be used to directly link units or be hooked up to a switch. Similar to FriendlyNet

So technically it's closer to a DEC DELNI than real AUI but if someone wants to implement an #AUI and even add a an AAUI adaptor cable I'm not gonna tell anyone not to.

Any of these vintage 1990 matte posters 16.5” x 23.5” are available for a donation to SDF Vintage Systems.

They were created by the Digital Equipment Corp computer museum in Sydney Australia in the early 1990s. Please contact membership at sdf.org with your donation offer.
They will be rolled up in a poster tube.
