Nope. Nlynx formed as a kinda management buyout of the NetWork
Products Division of Andrew Corp when Andrew bailed from the midrange
business. Nlynx then bought Idea out of bankruptcy (really a customer
list) and then later bought Decision Data (they were on the ropes too --
customer list?). Since DD had brand awareness and Nlynx didn't they
rebranded their stuff with the DD label. Now Nlynx is in bankruptcy (chap
11) due to their own problems.

Idea was bought by Nylnx, and I believe Decision Data are the
new owners

Over the years we have aquired many different brand
names of devices & sometimes they end up in storage one place &
their manual some place else. A coworker had her Lynk die of old
age & it got replaced with a middle aged Idea & she asked how to
increase the alarm volume ... we finally figured out that SETUP then F15
did the trick but initially confused because no visual confimation of
SETUP functions working.
Initially I said the new user needed to know where the twinax manual was,
but failing that the last person to use it had some memories. Now
my question here ... does anyone remember who bought out Idea, because
they listed in midrange publications of 5-10 years ago but not in
contemporary ones. I figure there might be a web site some place
under the new name that might have some semblance of a manual on-lin.
