Ours too.  Never any problems, even on the IBM 4341's DACU Unibus.

I could take or leave their transceivers though.  Especially the 802.3
variety, which don't work on our Ethernets.

The 3com board draws less power (only 4 amps), but its overhead is a
lot higher.  They're finicky about what transceivers they connect to.
Not recommended.
