We are considering installing twisted pair ethernet, and I have a
couple questions:

1) Are there any large sites that have an installed twisted pair
   ethernet set up.  If so, did it replace a different configuration?
   How does it compare to a ThickNet or ThinNet set up?  How are
   the reliability, manageability, and throughput?

2) Has anyone used EtherNext by a company called Networth?  How 
   reliable is their hardware?  How good is their customer support?

Thanks in advance.
