e-Twinax Controller - Model 4608 & 4808
Connect Up To 8 Twinax Devices Over IP
to a
New Power8, Power7 or Any iSeries AS/400 - Local or Remote
Please Note: We offer the Model 4608
and 4808 as REFURBISHED products
only.
If you would prefer a new controller with 3-year
warranty we recommend
the
I-O Corporation Xip+ Twinax Controller.

The e-Twinax Controller is a
"Twinax-to-IP" controller that can be used to
connect Twinax devices to an IBM Power8, Power7
or any iSeries or AS/400 over any IP connection,
locally or remotely. The simplest way to look at the e-Twinax Controller is as an "External
Twinax Workstation Controller". You can even use your
current IBM 8-port Twinax "Brick" on it as
shown above. Click on each photo of the eTwinax Controller for
large images.
Some models also support an 8-port RJ45
"Brick". Each RJ45 port is just like a Twinax Host
Port with an RJ45 Balun on it. 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.
