The Model 002 can communicate with an AS/400* over a token-ring network while supporting up to 56 twinaxial devices. Also, Model 002 can support token-ring attached devices while communicating with an AS/400 over an SDLC, X.21, or X.25 connection. In this configuration, the 5494 supports up to 80 devices of which up to 56 could be twinaxial attached and the rest token-ring attached.

• Supports twinaxial devices
• Provides user-friendly configuration using PC or PS/2*
• Supports all 5394 native-mode workstation and communication functions
• Provides twinaxial device communication to an AS/400* over a token ring or Ethernet LAN
• Provides token-ring workstation attachment to a remotely located AS/400
• Provides Ethernet workstation attachment to a remotely located AS/400
• Provides an EIA 232D (V.24/V.28), V.35, or X.21 interface for attachment to analog, digital, packet-switched, or circuit-switched networks using communication cables with Auto-Wrap capability for network problem isolation
• Allows (with the 5494 Twinaxial Expansion Kit) a customer to add up to 28 additional twinaxial devices, which increases the total number of twinaxial devices supported from 28 to 56
• Allows up to 80 SNA devices to be attached over a token ring or Ethernet LAN
• Allows the attachment to a SNA subarea network · Allows direct attachment to a Frame Relay network
• Allows source route bridging of SNA and non-SNA token-ring traffic across a Frame Relay network.
• Can communicate with up to four AS/400s at the same time

NOTE: When ordering this controller a Communication cable must be specified: V.24 or V.35.
