I've not had much luck with this on search engines. so I am trying it
here as it must be close to being classic if not already.
I am trying to identify a HP fibre optic cable assembly; P/N(?)
1005-0078.
It is described as a 30 metre fibre optic cable assembly. If was
dumpster recovered 5 years ago and comes on a plastic drum about 13"
across, which is labelled with the above desctiption. It was fitted with
two dissimilar cable anchorage. Does anyone have any ideas what it
was/is?
The cable actually looks like black figure 8 electrical wire (standard
lamp stuff), but thinner.
More to the point, the fibres are terminated with a screw on fitting,
which I have never seen listed in any catalogue. My thoughts were to try
and find a couple of AUI to FO converters and use it as part of my SOHO
network between the garage(lab/workshop) and office.
