Well, SCSI is an I/O device like others, too. Such "converters" are 
occasionally found on Macintosh systems, since the early Macs were
closed systems without the opportunity to build in extensions like
network interface cards.

Have a look at some Mac-oriented magazines...

Actually Cabletron sells a SCSI to twisted pair ethernet adapter.  Uses
the standard large db connector, with an RJ45 output for use in a TP
lan environment.
