Kinda neat how this is still being produced, despite its obsolescence.

They look like Modular Connectors 8P8C aka RJ45s.

Has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

You've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense.

It's an over-voltage protection balun. You have a 75Ohm incoming pair connect at the bottom (coaxial), which is then converted into a 120Ohm interface at the top as an RJ45 connection.

The main purpose of this device though is to shield a mobile phone base station from an over-voltage that could fuck up the main interface card on the equipment (this module sits outside the radio fixed to the rack - it's totally unpowered and passive).

You could try selling it on eBay and you'll get $0 for it, there's literally millions of them out there. Each base station has five or six in them.

Found this at my school. Not useless (it's a signal amplifier for spacecraft). I don't have any use for it, but the thought of it having been used in a device traveling to space intrigues me.

They were pretty rare on release and still pretty expensive, but I want one ;_;

I could talk about telecoms stuff all day (and usually do, seeing as it's my job).

The E1 on the front describes the line-rate of the signal it can handle. E1 is 2,048kbit/s or 30 channels (28 voice). It's a European standard. The US and Japan equivalent is a T1 or 1.55Mbit/s

It's a very old transmission standard (going on 30 years old now), but it's still used everywhere to carry voice.
>>
>>53402520
Can you give us more detail what it's actual use is? Is if for internet, phone, how much does it cost new, what can OP do with it? I say put it up his ass, timestamp, and send pics.
