Reference on DELNI limitation to non-cascaded mode when connected
to an Ether cable:


EK-ETHV1-IN-002 Ethernet Installation Guide, Digital Equipment Corporation,
1984, Appendix E, p. E1:

"If DELNI interconnects are cascaded, the top DELNI interconnect
cannot connect to an Ethernet coaxial cable.  A maximum of two layers
of DELNI interconnects are permitted, with the second layer of
DELNI interconnects operating in the global mode."
