Pictured is the router which sent the 1st internet connection from NYC to Tokyo. These were sold out of a basement office of a home in Rahway NJ. It's signed by everyone who worked for Cisco Systems in 1989. It was given to my dad when he retired in 1999 for his work in establishing the internet.Submitted by TriggerTough t3_10kdpgl in newjersey

To expand on this. You can work with the museum to create the loan terms.

I'm not in it for the money, just the memories.

So the loan terms are not monetary. It’s how it’s displayed, cared for, yours and your families access to it, the duration of how long you want it on loan to the museum and so on.

Ask InfoAge down in Wall NJ about exhibiting. Its a local NJ venue with tons of early computing and telecommunications exhibits.
