Hello Hardware Forums! I hope your combined expertise can help me out on a spot I'm in. I have recently come across some networking equipment from a defunct business, and I am curious to what I have in my hands. Would you all be able to give me a ballpark value for these items? I'm hoping that they're not junk, but if so, that would be welcome news too so I can clean the space. Thanks for your help! Here's the specs: US Robotics Total Control Enterprise Network Hub used The boards inside are NETserver PRI Card Network Mgt. Card AC PSU 70A x2 Quad V.34 Digital Modem x6 Dual PRI NAC CELLplex 7000 by 3COM used The boards inside are CP 7000 HD Switch 32x32 7600 Fast Ethernet I/F Card x2 These have both completed a power on test. Also, in new condition (in static packaging) PA-24PRTB-A x2 by NEC Electronics I appreciate any help that you can provide! -Jason
It is something that I am really not to famillar with and may have other models. The us robotics total control may be as high as $1500 and the 3com maybe about $500... having said that, like I said there are different models and options + may be old technology that might not be in use. Try going to the web site of the manufacturers, i don't think 3com is in business anymore, they merged with US robotics.
The US Robotics Total Control seems to be fetching $150. Additionally, I found a review done in 1997. For the 3Com CELLplex, it looks like $250-300 would about the most it would be. As with the Total Control, a review dated in 1997 popped up. The NEC PA-24PRTB-A cards seem to be asking at least $600 each, but I've seen them also asking close to $1,500.
