Thats probably because your BNC anything is only going to be 10Mb equipment, the original 1 pair job. Fast or 100Mb uses two pairs, but most will cut back to 10Mb for older equipment.

I did lookup BNC and how it worked. I read about thick and thin Ethernet.
I spent hours trying to get a good grasp of this technology before I had a pile of adapter in my house that did not work.
I am sorry I did not mention trying to work this out on my own as it is not often one hears talk of this technology unless it pertains to analog or IP security camera, and AV forums.
I am sorry that when I started in technology in 1995 the companies I worked for did not use BNC but the new CAT 3 standard.
Between from going to frys,com to looking at BNC cables for AV and having it recommended to go do research on BNC I am no better off than not asking the question in the first place.
It is a large amount of frustration you are reading.

I would think the transceiver would lock into the port with the other end having the 10base-t connector. I will check the link for AUI transceivers.
Thank you for your efforts.
