[seul-edu] Truckload of Bay Networks equipment up for grabs

[Jeff Nelson <jtnelson@emirates.net.ae>]

My apologies for the cross-posting and the xls attachment (opens fine in 
OpenOffice though).  

I've gotten an offer for a donation of practically a whole truckload of Bay 
Networks switches, hubs, and the like, from a fellow in Brooklyn, NY.  This 
is very high-end equipment typically used by large corporations and ISPs for 
backbones, high-speed video and voice networks, etc.  

About half of it is for ATM--Asynchronous Transfer Mode networking, a 
high-speed but expensive protocol.  
(http://www.techweb.com/encyclopedia/defineterm?term=ATM)

But there are also about 10 big 5000-model hubs with ethernet blades 
installed.  

For anyone who knows how to set up this stuff or is willing to learn, it 
could be a golden opportunity.  I'm not sure I can use it right now, and my 
friends might have my hide if I try to store it in their basement :-)  If 
anyone wants it, I can ask the guy to ship it straight to you.  

Details in attachment.  Please let me know ASAP.
