I guess this can be handy if you have coax going between rooms but want ethernet connectivity. Sure this thing is about 15 years old but it's new in box, the stuff inside is still in its baggies.

I just think it looks cool.

That was how networking was sent before twisted pair. I mean there was other things to, Bick thick ables and vampire tabs. What an age.

I was reminded of that, that yellow shit was called frozen garden hose for a reason. I still have an AUI somewhere in a box.
