10BASE-2 cable?

[ciphergoth]

No-one uses 10BASE-2 (coax) Ethernet any more, do they? I have loads of the cable but I suspect I might as well throw it away.

(Updated with correction - thanks to drreagan and others!)

Coax is 10Base-2, not 10Base-T (twisted pair)

Justin may be interested in it, I think Emmental is still on 10-base2.

I skipped a big bag of it a while back, and fund a home for my crimping tools...

Presuming you mean 10base-2, then yes - my work does. So whenever a connection is lose, the whole network falls over...

It'd be good to have some spares, especially if it comes with t-connectors.

It's still used for CATV ant DTV, so if you've got either of those in your life, you may need it...

Other than that, I've always thought that you could make some to structures with enough terminators and T-bits... :-)

I'm in exactly the same situation myself.. Just moved to rj45 twisted pair.

I did once see a verry cool corset made of it..
