Hey I need some help,
The company I work for runs a BNC network (yes I know it is old school but bosses are bosses). We have run out NIC for BNC networks and I am buggerd if I can find any replacements.
Basically I am looking for any PCI networks cards with the T-Piece BNC connector. (can be used). Getting a bit desperate, but hopefully will be moving off this silly network in a couple months, but in the meantime I am too sort of cards as have recently introduced new pc's, which obivously come with lan on the mobo.

I have checked prophecy so any other suggestions would be great.
Shot guys.

We had a good few boxes of these in the garage. I think they've all long since been given away.

What PCs are they running?

its not the pc's as such, they range between p3 to p4's.
its the network, boss does not like change and have run out of cards now, cos no one stocks them apparently.
