MWSF 02: Hybrid Retractable Ethernet-Modem Cable Announced


First developed in Japan and available soon from Madsonline is a portable connectivity kit. It consists of an 8-foot retractable 10/100 cable with RJ45 jacks on each end and also two RJ45-RJ11 converters. This kit eliminates the need for carrying in your bag both ethernet cabling and telephone cabling. Also included in the kit is a telephone splicing adapter so that if you encounter an older phone without a data jack, you can easily splice your PowerBook’s modem into this phone’s connection without having to unplug the line. This kit doesn’t have a trade name yet and will be available soon from Madsonline for under $50.00.
