1857.0. "Packetprobe with AUI interface, When ?" by HGODCS::RICHARDLAM () Tue Jan 10 1995 03:51

A customer wants to monitor 8 Thickwires with 8 DECpacketprobe 90s. But we all 
know that the probes do not have AUI ports. Using a repeater to make the 
conversion will be too costly for him.

Note 884.1 (By Bill) said that DECpacketprobe 900RR will have AUI port.
How many AUI ports will there be? When will it be available ? Or does anyone 
have any suggestion for making this connection w/o a repeater?

1857.1	DECpacketprobe 900RR == 802.5 token ring	SLINK::HOOD	I'd rather be at the Penobscot	`Tue Jan 10 1995 13:53`	2
	I think the DECpacketprobe 900RR is a token ring product.
1857.2	Sorry!	HGODCS::RICHARDLAM		`Wed Jan 11 1995 22:07`	2
	Oh yes, DECrepeater 900RR is for Token Ring Networks.

	There are no plans for a DECpacketprobe 90 with an AUI. Our 900 plans will give you at most 2 AUIs. Sorry, but in both cases, we are using existing hardware, and just putting RMON firmware on the module.
