Yes, an H4005 was shown but no H4000
I've got some here if you want to see pictures of them.

Well I speak to machines with the voice of humanity.
Hello!
(I did not see the fact that the original thread was cross-posted to
the TUHS list as well as this one, until after the fact.)
Now that I'd be interested in seeing.
It happens that a shop in Manhattan was collecting and attempting to
sell large quantities of Ethernet hardware. And I was the only buyer.
It annoyed them that I was both the only buyer and the only one in the
space who knew what they were.
I wasn't feeling ambitious enough to trudge out the whole lighting "kit
and kaboodle" <http://tmesis.net/Photography/Ummagumma.JPG>, so I took a
few photos on the kitchen table with the 50mm f/1.2 using the available
light from the kitchen window (not much since it's raining). That 50mm
f/1.2 is very good in low lighting but it also has a depth of field that
is thinner than rice paper, so the bokeh is quite evident in the photos
I took. I would have needed the lighting kit to use any of the macros.
I hope to someday build a light box so that I can do proper photographs
of kit like this.
So, here are a few photographs of some original Ethernet (10base5) bits
I have here -- Etherpipe, AUI cables, and h4000s and h4005s. I put the
camera away before I'd realized that I'd not photographed the tap tool.
I hope you won't be too disappointed in that.
