What kind of connectivity does the Sparcbook3 have?
14.4 fax/modem builtin (not upgradable), ISDN (needs an extra NT1 in some countries to work as the unit uses the S/T ISDN interface) and 10mbps ethernet (which needs a special cable to go to a AUI interface on the 3GX). The AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) cable is identical as the one used by other Sparc systems like the Sparc5, Sparc10 and Sparc LX. For most networks you need a transceiver to connect to an existing 10base-T (UTP) or 10base-2 (coax) network and these transceivers can be bought in any good computer hardware store. These cables can be quite expensive if you can’t find the proper place.
