I had a more careful look at the pile of terminal servers and hubs
today, and found some more "stuff". I'm surprised I've had so little
response, but if anyone definitely wants any of this, please let me
know before the end of next week or it will be gone (crushed/landfill).
However, if I know for sure that someone wants particular things, I
can hold some of them for a little longer.
qty.1 VT220, amber screen, working, in resonable condition, with
keyboard
qty.1 VT510, green (I think) screen, decent condition, with keyboard
(There may be a few more VT510s or VT420s. Apparently someone found
four in a storeroom this morning, but I've not inspected them yet.)
qty.15 Emulex P4000 terminal servers, 32-port, network booting (DECnet
or TCP/IP), with parallel port, BNC connector, AUI connector,
and
32 MMJ ports. I'll throw in 32 short MMJ-to-RJ45 cables and an
Allied Telesyn 10baseT microtransceiver with each.
1 is working (well, it powers up and passes the self-test); 5 are
"faulty" (power light comes on but not much else happens -- probably
faulty PSU), 3 are "dead" (almost certainly blown PSU), 4 have no PSU
board, and there are two that I've not properly tested yet.
qty.6 32-port 19" rackmount panels, 2U high, to take clip-in jacks
(eg RJ45 couplers). Sorry, no spare RJ45 couplers. These were
used with the terminal servers, we used short MMJ-RJ45 cables
to connect the TS to the back of the panel, and connected normal
patch leads to the front. You can buy couplers (but be warned,
I've never yet seen one that met the Cat5 spec, despite some
claims), or individual clip-in RJ45 sockets with Krone/110
punchdown connectors (which do meet Cat5/5e/6 specs) in various
colours, BNC connectors, ST fibre connectors, etc.
qty.?? several (a dozen or so) 3Com Linkbuilder FMS II 24-port hubs,
1U high 19" rackmount, mostly with management units. Good for
the PSUs if you don't need a 10Mb/s hub :-)
qty.?? several (a dozen or so) 3Com SuperStack II PS 40 24-port hubs,
1U high 19" rackmount, with on-board management. Neater than
the FMS II hubs.
Various expansion modules that plug into the back of 3Com hubs. You
can fit two to a PS 40, or one to an FMS II:
qty.10 AUI port, 10base5 module
qty.1 BNC 10base2 module
qty.5 Fanout module, like an AUI in reverse
qty.1 AUI bridge -- looks like an AUI port but has a lot of
electronics too
qty.6 (or maybe more) fibre optic adaptor with 2 x ST connectors
Also a box of Allied Telesyn AUI-to-10baseT microtransceivers, and
several older (mostly 12-port) hubs that are good for the PSUs (and not
much else IMHO).
I'll be away from tomorrow night until Wednesday, but if you want any
of this stuff, please email me. It seems a shame to scrap it
completely.
