We are looking at installing numerous (20-30) intelligent wiring hubs on our campus. One of the vendors we are looking at is Ungermann-Bass. Does anyone have expierence with their Access One product? I would appreciate any responses both favorable and unfavorable. Thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Zelman Internet: rzelman%coh@usc.edu Technical Services Manager City of Hope Medical Center Duarte, CA

We have several Ungermann-Bass Access/One network concentrators installed on
our campus (California State University Long Beach). There are several network
modules installed our the Access/One:
* MaxTalk (16 port AppleTalk module - for Macintosh networks)
* 10BaseT Ethernet module (ASM-310)
* Twisted Pair Ethernet module (ASM-300, old version, not 10BaseT)
We are very happy with UB hardware/software performance and support (except
for the price :-)). In fact, I just ordered 4 11-slot Access/One
concentrators, 15 MaxTalk modules, and 30 10BaseT modules. The only complain
(beside the high price) is their NetDirector network management software. It
runs on an OS/2 machine which requires 300MB hard disk and 12MB RAM!!! There's
also a text based version available called Network Management Console.
Have fun!
