Title: Positive ground and communicating with a classic

I have 8 Classic 150's that are being used in a positive grounded system. I would like to connect them to the internet. Has anyone found away to do this in a positive grounded system?

The Classic Ethernet connection is isolated from GND and battery negative via magnetic transformers in the jack. That should just work as long as the router or switch is also isolated from GND and battery.

The other communications phone jacks and USB is not isolated.
