43 Arcnet

    
Arcnet runs at about 2.5 Mbits/sec which is a lot faster than parnet or Appletalk,
but not as fast as ethernet. Arcnet hardware is cheaper than ethernet, however, so
for a small shop they may be a better deal.

Once upon a time, CBM released the A2060 for the Amiga 2000, and the A560 for the
A500. You can probably still find these used, and apparently there is a SANA II
driver for them called ch2060.device by Carsten Heyl. Look on Aminet.

CSA was working on some, but are on  hold pending the outcome of the CBM
liquidation. Contact   CSA   if you  are interested.
