(Click here to see other eTwinax Models)

Please Note:  We offer the Model 4693 as a REFURBISHED product only.  For applications that require more than 3 Twinax addresses, we recommend the I-O Corporation Xip Twinax Controller. Click here and you will be re-directed to the Xip Twinax Controller page.

Overview

The e-Twinax Controller is a "Twinax-to-IP" controller that can be used locally to connect Twinax devices to a System i, i5, iSeries or AS/400 over any IP connection.

When used remotely, it is a replacement for SDLC Remote Controllers such as the IBM 5494 and 5394, the Perle 594e, 494e and 394, and other IBM compatible Twinax controllers from I-O Corp., Decision Data and Idea.

It will support Twinax Display Stations and Twinax Printers (SCS and IPDS).

Being it uses TN5250e as it's communication protocol, it does not require any SNA protocols. In addition, it does not require DLSw (Data Link Switching) as IBM 5494s and other Twinax Controllers do.
