Search Tips...

Keyword Search
Our search engine uses any or all keywords typed in the text box to give you product search results.
For instance, typing in kvm will give you a broader set of results than kvm switch cables.

Note, however, that keywords in quotes are treated as a single phrase and will not be evaluated individually.

Booleans (AND, +, OR, NOT, -) are not supported.

Also, some keywords will not return results, and may automatically correct to a similar keyword.

Part Number Search Selection
Select this Search in the drop down box to search by part number instead of keywords.

Wild Card Search
The * character is only supported in a limited capacity. Using whole words is the best approach whenever possible.

"New Search" Radio Button
Search the entire section that you are currently in.

"Search Within Results" Radio Button
Enter keywords or a part number to limit your results within the previously searched results.


Other features

A list of all matching product categories or resources will appear in the upper left corner of the results page, when applicable, to help you further narrow your results, if you desire.

Use the "sort by" drop-down menu on the results page to sort by "most popular" and price (low to high or high to low)
in the store section.

    Your legacy system’s been reliable since coax was cool. You’ve invested a lot of money in it. Now you want to get more out of it. And with the BLACK BOX® Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server, you can. This solution enables you to connect twinax or coax IPDS or SCS or IPDS SCS/DSC printers to an Ethernet network.

    By using an Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server, you can address an IPDS SCS twinax or IPDS SCS/DSC coax system printer via TCP/IP from an AS/400 or a 3270-type mainframe. And talk about versatility—the printer being addressed can be a laser, line, or dot-matrix printer! The print server communicates the data received over the Ethernet link to the attached coax or twinax printer reliably.

    But this printer server doesn’t just work with IPDS printers—it also works with an SCS twinax or SCS/DSC coax system printer. With the Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server, these printers become available to virtually any host on an Ethernet network. These include AS/400 and 3270-type mainframes, and Novell®, UNIX®, and Windows® 95/98, Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Windows NT® host systems. All such host systems can communicate simultaneously with a printer attached to the Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server.

    Line and dot-matrix printers configured via AnyNet™ or SNA on an AS/400 offer page range support and posting of the Form Alignment message. The Form Alignment feature is particularly valuable when printing on preprinted forms such as checks and invoices.

    What sets this print server apart from many others is its ease of use. By using its PrintControl Windows based utility, setup and configuration is straightforward and effortless. Once you’ve assigned an IP address to the Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server, you can configure it right from your desktop—whether it’s attached locally or remotely.

    The Ethernet to Twinax/Coax Print Server also autosenses 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T speeds. It adapts automatically! Plus its flash memory enables you to download the latest enhancements to protect your investment in both your print server and your legacy system.
