[net.micro.mac] AppleTalk Connectors/Cables

merchant@dartvax.UUCP (Peter Merchant) (04/18/86)

A couple of us got inventive and took the connectors off an AppleTalk cable
and hooked them up to a long four wire cable to a Laserwriter and were pleased
by our success.

The following questions come to mind:
   (a) Is there anywhere, other than Apple, that we can get those little plugs
       that go on the end?  Is this some form of standard-type plug we can
       pick up at the proverbial corner Radio Chalk?
   (b) I see three nubs in an AppleTalk connector, but there are only two
       cables.  The third one is a ground?  Where can I found out this
       information?

E-mail any and all responses.  Thanks Muchly.
