If anyone out there is interested in using their NeXTstation in an ethernet enviroment, but they only have THICK ethernet connections, there is a device that will convert THICK to THIN (coax) ethernet, for use with the NeXT THIN ethernet connection. Digital Review Magazine, Dec 3/90 states ... MESTA is an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Transceiver that converts thickwire ethernet to a thinwire (RG58) transceiver. It is the smallest thinwire transceiver available today. Small in packaging, big in features, MESTA incorporates an Auto-Jabber,Sequence Quality Error Test, SQE/Heartbeat and a Receiver Mode Collision Detect (RXC). contact ..
