Sinclair Network
A local area network scheme designed by Sinclair in the 1980s for the ZX Spectrum series. Using the network port of Interface 1, it connects up to 64 machines at a rate of approximately 100 kbit/s, and was used in school computer rooms to share programs and data.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Sinclair Network is a local area network solution Sinclair designed in the 1980s for the ZX Spectrum series, implemented through the network port on Interface 1, using shared twisted-pair cable and supporting up to 64 machines in a chain.
Sinclair Network has a data transfer rate of about 100 kbit/s and uses a token-passing-like mechanism to coordinate multiple devices' access to the shared bus.
OqtaDrive maps the Sinclair network protocol stack onto the modern Internet, communicating with old machines using real Sinclair network timing at one end and encapsulating data as modern network packets for long-distance transmission at the other.
