  • VAX 4000 V96-2.3—10 Feb 1997
    TM VAX 4000 V96-2.3—10 Feb 1997 DIGITAL Systems and Options Catalog Product Description VAX 4000 systems provide commercial systems performance, high availability, and a compact footprint. They support a wide range of applications and options, including FDDI networks and Q-bus peripherals. System enclosure supports internal storage and Q-bus expansion through a B400X expansion cabinet. VAX 4000 systems come in three packages: Desktop Model 106A, Desktop/Deskside Model 108, and Pedestal/Deskside Model 505A/705A DSSI and Ethernet adapter chips—each driven by a 10-MIP on-chip RISC processor—are tightly integrated on the CPU module with direct access to memory. Digital's DSSI to SCSI HSD10 storage solutions replace DSSI RF36 disk technology in all VAX 4000 systems. Digital’s HSD10 DSSI-to-SCSI controller. mounted internally in system cabinet, supports standard RZxx SCSI storage on VAX 4000 systems while still supporting DSSI clustering. External StorageWorks HSD10 controllers are supported. VAX 4000 Model 106A offers performance of 10-ns NVAX chip. Systems achieve 215 transactions per second (TPS). With internal support for the HSD10, DSSI-to-SCSI controller, VAX 4000 customers can take advantage of low-cost, more flexible and open StorageWorks solutions. VAX 4000 Model 108 offers identical performance, is compatible with Model 106A, but is housed in a new Desktop/Deskside minitower enclosure. In addition, these systems offer enchancements in the memory and storage capacity, supporting up to 512 MB of standard SIMM memory and six storage devices in the system enclosure. VAX 4000 Model 505A and 705A offer 12 ns and 9 ns performance, respectively in a Q-bus Pedestal package.
