This chip is also responsible for networking between Namco System 2 and 22. Namco also made a custom C422, nearly identical to its C139, found on System 12, 23 and later revision System Super 22 pcbs (confirmed using a twin Cyber Cycles cab that linking a C139 and C422 pcb works flawlessly). I can't confirm if this chip exists on any Namco System 246 related hardware.
EDIT: Not related to networking but one request I would like is for that Namco custom C407 decapped for its contents added in MAME so SS22 video pcb repairs are far easier (now due to the rarity of this hardware). Same for regular system 22 which I would like to know if the no 3d fault is even repairable.
