That is a Laird (Pacific Wireless) branded one. Yes, Tycon had better labels.
The current indicator light was useful. Unfortunately that one doesn’t support GigE, plus after 10-15 years we’re having some of them die. I remember the Trango transformer style power bricks with the fuse inside, if the installer crimped a plug on the cable and momentarily shorted the power pins, it would blow the non replaceable fuse and the power brick literally became a brick. And of course there were the original Motorola Canopy POEs with the short Cat5 cable built in. Some people loved those, I did not.

Tycon sells them now with normal labels but in the early days (~20 years ago) we sourced them from some strange places and they all had different funky labels. I wonder who the OG designer/manufacturer was.

I guess that makes sense from a marketing perspective. I've probably used the term splitter when describing a switch to a customer. I usually see 1-2 or 1-4 splitters. "1KMbps splitter" that just sounds impressive. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Carl Peterson PORT NETWORKS 401 E Pratt St, Ste 2553 Baltimore, MD 21202 (410) 637-3707
