Heinz,
        Here at CMU, we'd installed the IBM cabling system also, and were faced
with a similar problem. Our solution was to use Farallon PhoneNet, and
StarControllers. We have loads of these things, and they work pretty well. What
should be watched carefully, though, is connecting lots of things on remote ends
(say within a lab), or mixing PhoneNet and LocalTalk media (odd things happen).

        Within limits, it works well for us. I have no affiliation with Farallon
other than being a satisfied customer.

Hope this helps,
Tom
