 Connects Twinax Displays & Printers
to the System i, i5, Power5/6/7,
& iSeries AS/400
Over Any IP connection
via an Ethernet LAN
Overview
The I-O
Xip Twinax Controller connects IBM and IBM compatible
Twinax display stations and printers to an AS400-iSeries-System
i host
via TCP/IP over an Ethernet LAN. The
Xip is ideal for those who are migrating
their AS/400-iSeries to any Ethernet environment.
 .
Advantages
 |
Reliable Twinax displays and IPDS/SCS printers can operate in an
Ethernet environment |
|
Eliminates the need for expensive IBM Twinax Work Station
Controllers |
|
In locations requiring remote access, the I-O
Xip replaces
expensive remote controllers |
|
No need for high-priced leased lines or expensive
DSU/CSU
modems |
|
No re-cabling – continue to utilize existing Twinax
or twisted pair cabling |
|
Supports up to 56 logical sessions (4 sessions per device) |
|
Supports up to 4 AS/400-iSeries hosts |
|
Supports TN5250e, SNA and AnyNet |
|
Easy to install |

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 can be configured – Up to 56 logical sessions supported |
