EuroComm, Inc. has the international marketing rights for MacRing SE from
Asante Technologies, Inc. (formerly h-three) in North Carolina and
uses Nova International as the Scandinavian distributor. MacRing SE is used
for:
1) Macintosh SE to Macintosh over a Token Ring link
Shipped with each board is a completely TokenTalk-compatible driver
allowing full access to AppleTalk over a Token Ring link at 4Mbps. Thus,
any software designed to run over AppleTalk can be used, and the Token
Ring link becomes transparent. It has been tested with Microsoft Mail,
Word, Excel, TOPS 2.1, and Timbuktu.
2) IBM PC Access to AppleShare File Server
An IBM PC can access a Macintosh set up as an AppleShare File Server with
AppleShare PC 2.0.
3) Macintosh Access to IBM File Servers
Miramar Systems' MacLAN lets the MacRing SE user access any IBM file server,
like Novell, PCLAN, and 3COM.
4) 3270 support so that a MacRing SE user can access IBM mainframes using
the same Token Ring-to-mainframe connections as PCs (for example, IBM
3174, IBM 37X5 T1C, and other Token Ring gateways).
To locate a vendor's address and phone numbers, use the vendor name as a
