RE: Twisted Pair---Balun---Twinax

Wasn't us from everything I and the network guys could see, no "unusual"
activity, 400 is behind firewall, nothing on firewall or 400..  Saw the
posting too but thanks

Actually this is probably the "push" I need to get rid of the last 4
green screens in that office.......
