I'd also point this out. Cheapernet wasn't specified for 100MBit, so a hub
that transfers 100Mbit won't do this on the BNC connector - or it would
have to be a switch that could translate the rates. But at the time
100MBit switches became cheap enough, there was already an infrastructure
for twisted pair, and noone normally needed BNC connections anymore.
