Additional Features
| FEATURES | BENEFITS |
| Investment Protection | When installing an Ethernet LAN that is attached to an AS/400–iSeries, reliable Twinax displays and IPDS/SCS printers can operate in the new Ethernet environment maintaining the usefulness of the equipment |
| Eliminates the Need for Twinax Work Station Controller | A significant saving is realized by installing an I-O Xip Twinax Controller instead of an expensive IBM Twinax Work Station Controller |
| No IBM Remote Controller Required | When remote access to an AS/400–iSeries is required, an expensive IBM or IBM compatible remote controller is replaced by an economical I–O Xip Controller |
| No Leased Lines or Expensive Modems | When communicating to a remote site, there is no need to spend valuable resources on high-priced leased lines and special modems. |
| No Re-cabling | The I-O Xip allows Twinax displays and printers to be connected to existing Twinax or twisted pair cabling eliminating the expense of re-cabling |
| Multiple Protocols | Supports the auto configuring TN5250e and AnyNet for remote locations or SNA for a local attachment |
| Multiple Host | Supports up to 4 hosts |
| Multiple Sessions | Up to 4 sessions per physical device address can be configured – Up to 56 logical sessions supported |
