The boards you describe sound like they might be the older Apple II AppleTalk II boards, as pictured here: http://www.applefritter.com/content/can-anyone-tell-me-history-apple-ii-appletalk-ii-interface-card-a2b2080-i-have-photos-attach I don't understand yet how the functionality of the AppleTalk II vs. Workstation Card products differ. I would blindly speculate that the AppleTalk II cards might have used the same AppleTalk connector box dongle that the earliest Macintosh computers used? -- Mark J.
