     H8571-A       Passive adapter, 25-pin DSUB male to MMJ

     H8571-B       Passive adapter, 25-pin DSUB male to MMJ

     H8571-C       Passive adapter, 25-pin DSUB female to MMJ (unfil-
                   tered)

     H8571-D       Passive adapter, 25-pin DSUB female to MMJ (fil-
                   tered)

     H8220         Pack of 50 MMJs

     H3103         Loopback, 6-pin MMJ

     BC23P-10      Cable assembly for DECconnect SER and OCC cabinet,
                   Unshielded

     BC23R-10      Cable assembly for DECconnect SER and OCC cabinet,
                   Shielded

     The DECserver hardware requires both a transceiver drop cable
     and Ethernet connection, H4005 or DELNI, to connect to a Thick-
     Wire Ethernet physical channel or a DEMPR/DESPR to connect from
     a ThinWire segment to ThickWire Ethernet. The DECserver 300 sup-
     ports both ThickWire and ThinWire connections integral to the
     box.
