	ITNW 2313 - Exploring ARCnet Specifications
		ARCnet was one of the topologies used early on in networking and is rarely used as the topology of choice in current LAN environments.
		One of the greatest flexibilities of ARCnet is that you can integrate connections from active hubs to a linear bus connection as long as you terminate at the last connection point.
		ARCnet is cabled with RG-62 A/U coax with 93 Ohm terminators or the newer UTP with 100 Ohm terminators.

	What is ARCnet? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		Short for Attached Resource Computer network, ARCnet is one of the oldest, simplest, and least expensive types of local-area network.
		ARCnet was introduced by Datapoint Corporation in 1977.
		A special advantage of ARCnet is that it permits various types of transmission media -- twisted-pair wire, coaxial cable, and fiber optic cable -- to be mixed on the same network.

	ARCNET and CircLink Products - SMSC
		ARCNET has many characteristics that make it ideal for industrial and embedded networking environments.
		This is due to the deterministic nature of ARCNET, its high reliability and fault tolerance, and its adaptability to a wide variety of cabling media and configurations.
		CircLink™, an ARCNET derivative, further improves on the protocol by eliminating the need for external processor and is optimized as a wire-replacement technology inside industrial and commercial machines.

	ARCnet - About ARCNet (Site not responding. Last check: )
		ARCnet, short for Aboriginal Resource Centre, is a not-for-profit venture and is designed and maintained free of charge by taybridge communications, an Aboriginal-owned (Mohawk) online services business.
		ARCnet’s sole purpose is to promote, specifically, Canadian Aboriginal businesses and organizations.
		At ARCnet, we think it is equally important to provide a description of the business or organization and contact information and a sample of their site.

	The Industrial Ethernet Book - Articles: Accessing ARCNET Devices from Ethernet Networks
		By contrast, an ARCNET Data packet cannot be transmitted until after a successful Free Buffer Enquiry handshake, a sequence of two short packets (one in each direction) whose purpose is to ensure that the eventual recipient of the Data packet has a buffer available in which it can store the Data packet.
		ARCNET hubs are commonly used to connect multiple ARCNET cable segments because a single cable segment is limited in both its length and the number of devices which it can connect.
		However, not all ARCNET networks use a network-layer protocol, and in those cases it may be difficult or perhaps impossible to construct an appropriate router depending on the way that ARCNET is being used.

	ARCnet Topology and Cabling Rules (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Programs which send packets via ARCnet basically just arrange the packet to be sent into an available buffer, along with the ARCnet Node ID of the destination, and then tell the ARCnet controller chip the buffer number that is to be sent.
		Each ARCnet board has a unique (within each cabling system) 8-bit node ID, which is generally set on the network interface board using a DIP switch.
		ARCnet boards often also commonly provide one or more diagnostic LEDs, which as a rule provide much the same function as the corresponding LEDs at active hubs.

		ARCnet Topology is star and bus or a mixture.
		ARCnet tokens travel based on a station identifier (SID) which each computer has.
		The acronym SID is used for a station identifier with regard to ARCnet, but as used in the Windows NT and Windows 95 operating systems, it refers to the security identification number of a user or group.

	ARCNet - The Aboriginal Resource Centre is off the air. Thank you.
		After providing ARCnet as a free service since 1996, and after a lot of thought, it is time for ARCnet to go off-line.
		While I have very much appreciated the contact with the numerous Aboriginal business and organizations in Canada, and taken pride in being a small part in their promotion, and supporting them in this manner, the time has come to move on to other things.
		ARCnet was one of the first online locations to promote Canadian Aboriginal business, and it has been a thrill to see the Internet evolve and grow and see other sites that provide a similar service — imitation, they say, is the sincerest form of flattery.

	What is ARCNET? - a definition from Whatis.com
		- ARCNET is a widely-installed local area network (LAN) technology that uses a token-bus scheme for managing line sharing among the workstations and other devices connected on the LAN.
		The LAN server continuously circulates empty message frames on a bus (a line in which every message goes through every device on the line and a device uses only those with its address).
		ARCNET is one of four major LAN technologies, which also include Ethernet, Token Ring and FDDI.

	ARCnet
		ARCnet (Attached Resource Computer NETwork) was originally developed by Datapoint Corporation in 1968, way before OSI and the like.
		ARCnet used a sinusoidal dipulse of 24 Vtt to transmit data over the network.
		ARCnet knows three types of framing: short frames, long frames and the exception frame.

	ARCNet :: Attached Resource Computer Network
		ARCNet stands for Attached Resource Computer Network and was created in 1977 by the Datapoint Corporation.
		ARCNet has the destination computer or device or the LAN server read the message, reset the token so that frame can be re-used by another computer.
		So ARCNet is similar to token ring networks, except that the computers don't have to be connected in any particular fashion

		Like Ethernet, ARCNET is a networking technology with a long track record that has successfully transformed itself over the years to meet the specific needs of its customers.
		Unlike Ethernet, ARCNET is based on a very simple token-passing protocol, making it much more attractive for embedded system designers looking for a robust, easy to use communication technology that requires little or no software to implement.
		ARCNET nodes can be connected in bus, star, or mixed topologies, allowing the system designer to minimize wiring costs and overcome physical wiring layout barriers.
