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 I never used this card and I can only assume I got it from one of the various outdated systems that I was lucky enough to acquire from businesses disposing of them back in the late 90s and early 00s.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

Most LANS That Use Employ Ring Technology Use An Access Mechanism Called Token Passing.A Token Ring Operates As A Single, Shared Medium.Token Ring Network Is A Communication Protocol For Local Area Networks. In Token Ring Network All The Computers Are Connected In Circle (Ring Topology) As Shown In The Picture Below.

      Computer 1 Is Connected To Computer 2 And Computer 2 Is Connected With Computer 3 And Computer 3 With Computer 4 And Computer 4 With Computer 1 In Circle.   Arranging Computers In Circular Order Which Is Ring Topology. If Computer Wants To Send Data To Another Computer, It Must Wait Until It Obtains The Token,When It Is In Control Of Ring. Token Circulates Like This In The Circle, See Below Pictures.

              The Token Keeps Revolving In The Circle, If Computer 1 Wants To Send Data To Computer 3,     Computer 1 Waits Until The Token Arrives To It.

  Token Converted To A Data Frame.

  Computer 3 Receives The Data.

  Computer 1 Releases The Token.

    This Is How Token Operation Works In Ring Network Called Token Ring.   I Hope You Understood The Token Ring Network Which Is Used In Local Area Network.
