I don't have a 10Base2 switch, but I have an old repeater with 4-5 10BaseT
ports and a 10Base2 port. And I have a 10Base2 transceiver (as well as 2 or 3
10BaseT transceiver). Good thing because the Pro has an AUI connector.

Same here, except unmanaged. I didn't realize until years into the 1G era that
1G is backwards compatible TWO generations, not the usual one. And the switch
seems to be happy to speak 10 Mb half duplex, nice.
