[net.unix] need help with data link FAST

morse@leadsv.UUCP (Terry Morse) (06/28/85)

HELP!!  I need some information on how to set up a data link between
computers.  We have HASP boards in our computers, but now we hae to tie
them together.  Our VAX is a host talking to 2 Computervision systems.
One of them is 150 feet away, the other is 1.5 miles away.

What sort of data lines do we need?  Can we get by with a hard wire link for
the short distance?  What sort of drivers/modems do we need for the longer
distance?  We need data transfer rates >= 9600 baud.  What's a ballpark
estimate for the cost?  My boss wants this info right away, so please
respond as soon as possible.

I will be exceedingly grateful,
