[comp.sys.mac] Request for info on "Nodem"

olejnik@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Anthony Olejnik) (08/15/89)

Hi,

I'm looking for an AppleTalk to Ethernet gateway/bridge/etc.
I know about Kinetic's FastPath and Cayman's GatorBox, however
someone mentioned to me that the "Nodem" by Adaptec may also do
what I want.

Does anyone have any additional info and/or comments on this product?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The Adaptec Nodem is not functionally equivalent to either the
Kinetics FastPath or Cayman's GatorBox.

The Nodem is a SCSI<->Ethernet box. Hook it up to your Mac's SCSI and
you can EtherTalk. It works like Kinetics' EtherSC.

Hope this helps.
