Does anyone have any recommendations for adaptors to connect a
thinwire-only controller (on the back of a VAXstation) to a
regular drop cable.  There are already multiple repeaters in the
LAN in question, so the delay due to a DEMPR could be a problem-
not to mention the cost of using a DEMPR for a few workstations.
All the rest of the cable plant in question is regular Ethernet.
