I can understand why you presented a png of a filtered pcap.  I
agree it looks strange but there's not enough information for
analysis.

I use this T61 on routers and switches all the time, and mostly
under X rather than text mode, but the switches and routers I
talk to are mostly Ciscos and set up to "more" at the end of
each page.

It sounds like you suspect your T61 of not being able to display
the text as fast as the switch can send it.  This is very likely
as displaying text in a font under X windows is a lot more work
then displaying text in text mode.  Try the telnet from a text
mode console for comparison.  (Usually ctrl-alt-F1 will get you
to a text console and ctrl-alt-F7 will get you back into X).
