[Sunhelp] Question about SS5

[Fuerst, Robert C. (Chris)]

I think the first motherboard full duplex came with either the 20's or the
Ultra 170e's.
Cycle upgrades support full duplex I believe.   You might want to check if
your not sure exactly what you have.
The cheapest I found fast ethernet cards was around $500.  If someone knows
a cheaper supply please let me know.

	Try http://sun-ref.sunhelp.org/  The SHR has loads of good
information.  To
	answer your questions, the SS5 that you have sounds like it has a
170MHz
	TurboSPARC.  I'm pretty sure that they don't support Full duplex
ethernet,
	but I don't know that for sure.  Maybe James or somebody else can
tell us
	which, if any, machines are capable of full duplex ethernet.
