Apple Attachment Unit Interface
     
         (AAUI) A 14-position, 0.050-inch-spaced
        ribbon contact connector.  Early {Power Macintosh} and Quadras
        had an AAUI (Apple Attachment Unit Interface) {port}
        (rectangular shaped) for {Ethernet}, which requires a
        {transceiver}.  To use {twisted pair} cabling, you would need
        to get a {twisted pair} transceiver for the computer with an
        AAUI port.  Some {Power Macintosh} computers had both an AAUI
        and {RJ-45} port; you can use one or the other, but not both.

        AAUI signals have the same description, function, and
        electrical requirements as the {AUI} signals of the same name,
        as detailed in {IEEE 802.3}-1990 CSMA/CD Standard, section 7.
