DynaPort SCSI/LINK3

DAYNA COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

SCSI/LINK-3, SCSI/LINK-3 PB
( Handig om te weten…. hij heeft een 12V voeding nodig! Bv die van de zilveren externe HD)
Aasluiten op bv de Plus. Vanuit de Plus een SCSI kabel naar de Dynaport. Vanuit de Dynaport dooprlussen naar de HD. Vergeet niet stroom op de HD en de Dynaport te zetten. HD moet ook aan staan.

Dayna PORT or DaynaPort SCSI/Link SCSI to Ethernet adapter model DP0800.
Module with DB-25 SCSI connector in and out, and a 10b2 BNC (coax) Ethernet connector. $35 plus shipping, will include an A/C supply, 12VDC, centre positive. SCSI cable extra. ONE available as of Feb 2010

(SCSI/Link-3 only) the SCSI/Link-3 has three ports: AUI, coax (10base2), and RJ45 (10baseT). If you connect to a hub/switch/router port that supports both 10Mbps and 100Mbps, the SCSI/Link-3 seems unable to determine which of the three ports to use, and will not establish a connection. This is a hardware compatibility issue that cannot be fixed by software. Either use a 10Mbps-only hub/switch/router, or connect a 10baseT MAU to the AUI port and use that to connect to the rest of the network. This problem does not occur with the SCSI/Link-T, which has only one port (10baseT).
