Applications
The Madge Smart 16/4 AT Ringnode was designed for installation in ISA-slot desktop PCs connecting to IBM Token Ring LANs operating at 4 or 16 Mbps. Token Ring was widely deployed in corporate and government environments through the late 1980s and 1990s, particularly in IBM-centric networks running OS/2, DOS, and early Windows. Madge Networks was a leading third-party supplier of Token Ring adapters and was known for strong compatibility with IBM Token Ring infrastructure. This card is suited for maintaining or restoring legacy Token Ring network segments, supporting vintage IBM-compatible systems, or museum/collector use.
This Madge Smart 16/4 AT Ringnode Token Ring ISA network card (MPN 152-034-02) has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The PCB is clean with no visible damage, cracked traces, or burned components. The bracket is intact and both the RJ-45 and DB-9 connectors look undamaged. There is some light general wear consistent with prior use and handling. This card has not been powered up or tested at our facility. It was pulled from a legacy computing environment.
