[c-nsp] Galvanic isolation for Ethernet?

[A.L.M.Buxey at lboro.ac.uk]

Hi,

should never run copper for networks between buildings (and some would say ever outside
buildings) - thats optic territory. we use optical isolation...but if you really want to 
protect your ports maybe these will help:

(if  anyone else has experience of these....or you end up using them...please review
and give me some feedback as I do have some annoying (and expensive) corner cases that
they might be useful for....)

many thanks
