IBM 5494 Remote Controller

IBM 5494 Twinax Remote Controller

IBM 5494 Twinax Remote Controller

The IBM 5494 Remote Controller provides access for twinax (AS/400) remote workstations users.  Three models of the IBM 5494 Twinax Controller are available: the IBM 5494-EXT, IBM 5494-001 and the IBM 5494-002.

The IBM 5494-001 supports up to 56 twinax I/O devices   via a v.24, v.35 or x.21 communication lines. 

The IBM 5494-002 supports up to 80 I/O devices while communicating over SDLC, X.21, or X.25 connection. In this manner, the IBM 5494 supports up to 80 devices of which up to 56 could be twinaxial attached and the rest token-ring attached.  

The IBM 5494-EXT consolidates the IBM 5494-001 & IBM 5494-002 into a single model with features. The IBM 5494-EXT is equivalent to the IBM 5494-001 and the IBM 5494-002 when the Token-Ring Adapter is installed.

All models of the IBM 5494 support attachment of up to 28 twinaxial devices, and up to 56 devices with the 5494 Twinaxial Expansion Kit (5494 #1200) installed. When the IBM 5494 Ethernet (5494 #1500) adapter or the Token-Ring (5494 #1100) adapter is installed, the IBM 5494-EXT can support up to 80 devices, of which up to 56 can be twinaxial, while communicating over SDLC, Frame Relay, X.21 or X.25 connections. The IBM 5494 can alternatively communicate with a AS/400 host over Token-Ring or Ethernet network. With the addition of the Frame-Relay Token-Ring bridge feature, non-SNA traffic on token-ring LANs can access the communication network via the IBM 5494.
