533.0. "FDDI Concentrator Questions?" by ANGLIN::CLAYTON (Merlin Clayton DTN 445-7217) Wed Dec 01 1993 14:41

Is the DECconcentrator 900MX custom media module (DEF6X-MA) available and
shipping?

I am looking for the UTP RJ45 copper mod connectors (DEFXU-AA) which I cannot
find in a Digital products book.  Are these mod connectors available and 
shipping?   ... what's the price?

Configuration question....

If I need to provide 15 FDDI UTP connections, can I do this with the 900
concentrators (3) in DEChub ONE configurations? If yes, how would the 
900MXs be connected together?

Thanks

Merlin

    To get 15 from 3 you would need to put them in a DEChub 900 so that you
    can use the 2 backplane ports; otherwise you loose 2 of the 6 front
    panel ports on the modules to hooking them together.  In a hub you can
    use the 2 backplane ports for that and you get the port count you need.

When will the DECconcentrator 900MX custom media module (DEF6X-MA) be
available with the UTP RJ45 copper mod connectors (DEFXU-AA)?

This whole config hinges on FDDI over copper.  If we do not have the 
product by the customer's required installation date, then I don't have
a Digital solution for them.
