Compaq 32-Bit Network Controller

This is a EISA network adapter that supports both Ethernet and Token Ring. I never used this card and I can only assume I got it from one of the various outdated systems that I was lucky enough to acquire from businesses disposing of them back in the late 90s and early 00s. This card has a standard RJ45 port as well as ports that look like a 9 pin serial port and a 15 pin joystick port. I assume the serial and joystick looking ports are rather for token ring, but I may be wrong. If anyone is familiar with this card or token ring technology, please explain these ports. I'd love to learn more about this vintage technology.

Token Ring แหวนอัจฉริยะที่มาพร้อมฟีเจอร์การจ่ายเงินแบบไร้สาย

ช่วงนี้ผมได้ตามข่าวกระแส Fintech ในต่างประเทศและพบว่าในจีนการจ่ายเงินด้วยระบบอิเล็กทรอนิคส์ อย่าง Alipay เป็นที่นิยมกันมาก และประเทศหนึ่งในยุโรป (ลืมไปละว่าเป็นประเทศอะไร)ก็มีการตั้งนโยบายว่าจะใช้เงินดิจิตอลแทนเงินสดตั้งแต่ปี 2015 ทำให้พอสังเกตุดูในอนาคตเราอาจจะอยู่ในสังคมที่ใช้เงินดิจิตอลเป็นสื่อกลางในการแลกเปลี่ยนก็คงจะไม่ผิดนัก (อย่างในปัจจุบันนี้ผมเองก็ใช้ True Wallet, PayPal…

Connectivity - Network Case Study

Connectivity – Network Case Study

The computer community consists of approximately 1,000 personal computers. These computers include 700 different types of IBM and IBM clone personal computers (PCs), around 150 UNIXworkstations, and 300 Macintosh computers. The majority of this equipment is connected to some type of network. Obviously all of the individual components are not shown in the previous diagram. This is true of almost…

Network Backbone - Network Case Study

Network Backbone – Network Case Study

The Novell LANs are inter-connected by a 16Mbps fiber optic cable that is the backbone of the network. Refer back to the Campus Network figure. This media was chosen because it allows faster transmission speeds and because it can extend further distances than copper cabling.

  Why are backbones used in networks?

Each of the Novell file servers is connected to the backbone by an Optical Data 836
