Make sure you ask for the datacom guy/dept.  The counter guy at the supply
houses isn't likely to know a MMJ connector from a DECnet connector.

I already need to hit greybar to see about an IEC 320 power cord, I'll ask
about the MMJ connectors, and 6 conductor cable too.  I'd just fax an order
to 'em from work, but they have problems with my new bosses billing
practices (at least, I hope he's just practicing-- %diety% forbid it's gonna
be like this forever), now we're a cash account...  :/
