I need to connect a Pyramid 9810 computer with an IBM mainframe running
MVS/JES2 in order to send data back and forth.

Currently, we use 9-track tapes to cart the data back and forth.
We also have a 9600 baud RJE link between the two computers but it is way
too slow.

We have investigated an Ethernet TCP/IP interface for the mainframe and
found that it costs alot of money.


What other options are there?
(A higher speed RJE link would probably be acceptable).
