[rescue] SS20's AUI port

[Guess]

What happened to BNC ? It sounds like a 3 horns
monster from u guys. The network hung or what ?

Though I have a 5-port hub but just try to avoid messy
cables everywhere.

By the way is it possible to make my own cable ?
Convert tiny AUI to stardard AUI ? What is the
connector name u guys call it ? For serial we have
DB25/DB9, what about for micro AUI and standard AUI ?
