[aclug-L] Re: BNC to twisted pair converter?

[<Todd_Lundstedt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Or.. if you wanna go really cheap and jerry-rigged, get a small hub that has a
BNC connector and RJ45 connectors on it.  I am sure I could sell you mine for
under $300.
;)

They are *expensive* in most cases...  Last time I saw one new, they
where running about $300 or so.

I'd sugest you get a network card that supports both types of
interface.  I beleive 3 com has one that does that for under $300.
