We are in the process of installing a new twisted-pair wiring system in 3
buildings at Caltech to support twisted-pair Ethernet, Localtalk, and 
RS-232.  We currently have some Macs connected with their own flat modularr
phone cords and Fallaron PhoneNet connectors.  I would like to move the
Macs to the new wiring, and this raises several questions:
1.  What experience have people had with Nuvetech ST vs PhoneNet Plus boxes?
2.  Any problems with using both on the same network?
3.  Are the Nuvotech ST boxes really "completely terminating" such that I can
plug and unplug Macs from various arms and not have to worry about the 
termination aspects of the network?
4.  Is it worth replacing the PhoneNet Plus boxes with Nuvotech ST boxes?

Please send responses to me, and I will summarize.
