I have seen recommendations to fragment a large ethernet backbone by
the inclusion of RF X switches.  In one position the cable is continuous
and in the other it is split into two and each side is correctly terminated.
Has anyone any idea who makes these switches?  Manual or remote control would
do , but remote control would be preferable.
