Subject: FF: couple of Watford AB data switches (Cambridge)
Just in case anyone wants to take them :) Nobody on the Acorn newsgroup
wants them anyway - heh!
I fished them out of a skip at the weekend when I got the A5000 and the
two A420s. They're two-way boxes, and I think they switch 25 lines so
could potentially be used for all sorts, not just the printers for which
I'm assumed they were designed. They may even carry BBC-era video
reliably if someone wanted to connect two machines to one screen.
I think I found four centronics - centronics cables with them and one
centronics - 25way D connector.
I'm just north of Cambridge if anyone wants them anyway, otherwise
they're off to the tip in a week or so - just grabbed them on the
offchance they'd be useful to someone.
cheers
Jules
