[comp.dcom.lans] Wanted: EXCELAN Transceiver Parts

nick@toro.UUCP (Nicholas Jacobs) (01/04/90)

I have some Excelan IEEE 802.3 Transceivers which need new AMP connectors.
Excelan can repair them for $100 apiece, but that seems like a lot when
all I need is a new pin. Does anybody know of a source for these?

Please email me any responses, I promise I'll keep them for future
reference.

Thanks in advance,

Nicholas Jacobs

Thank you for all your replies. One person suggested a company called
Anixter Bros. which in fact has a outlet here in NYC. I contacted them
and they were able to sell me the parts in question.

For everyone's future reference, when I contacted BICC, they informed me
that they do NOT deal directly with customers (they distribute through
outfits like Anixter Bros.).

Thanks again,

Nicholas Jacobs
