1740.0. "STP for DECconcentrator 900 ?" by ANNECY::FARABET (Bit Error Rate Tester) Mon Jul 10 1995 10:04

    I would like to replace an existing DECconcentrator 500 with a
    DECconcentrator 900 to save space in a custom configuration.
    
    The DECcontrator 500 was configured with a STP board (DEFCN-SA)
    and I don't find such a STP board for DECconcentrator 900 !
    
    Is there such a board (or solution) for DECconcentrator 900, as
    I have to keep all the cables the same ?
    
    
            Thanks,
    
            Bertrand.

1740.1STP is dead...NETCAD::MELARAGNIWed Jul 12 1995 08:469
No, we do not produce an STP interface for the DEChub products. Highly
unlikely that we ever will, either. STP has been replaced with the
standards-based TP-PMD which uses 100 ohm unshielded twisted pair for
its media. The connector is an 8 pin MJ.

The TP-PMD interfaces we sell will also support a shielded version of
the UTP cable, thus it may serve the same market as the STP config.
