Why Replace When You Can Connect?? Connect Your Current Twinax Printers and Terminals to Your New Power9
As you know, new IBM System i Power9 and Power8 systems do not have local Twinax Workstations Controllers.
What do you do with your current investment in Twinax printers and terminals, especially if you're moving to a hosted "cloud" based Power9?
In addition, IBM has all but eliminatedsupport for Twinax Remote Controllers like the IBM 5494/5394, Perle 594/494/394 and other compatible SNA controllers.
To a lot of users this is a major financial concern.Their large investment in Twinax terminals and printers currently installed at their local and remote locations can add a great deal to the cost of moving to a new system.
We have the perfect solution for these users that want to keep this current investment in peripheral equipment productive. This frees up more of the budget for things that will make a difference. Why spend money to replace a printer that works with a new printer, or a terminal that's doing the job with a new terminal?
TheXip+ Twinax Controllerand eTwinax Controller are Twinax Controller that run Pure TCP/IP (no SNA, ANYNET or DLSw protocols) and can extend the productive life of your Twinax Printers and Terminals for years to come.
Basically you can look at these Twinax-Over-IP Controllers as "External" Twinax Controllers for the Power9, Power8 or any model iSeries AS/400. Or, if you're moving to the "cloud", these can be your "Twinax Remote Controllers" to the remote system.
If the answer is "yes" to any of the following questions, these "External" Twinax Controllerswill let you keep your existing Twinax infrastructure and eliminate your concerns.
Areyou getting a new System i Power9 or Power8 with no internal Twinax Workstation Controllers?Are you switching to a TCP/IP only environment but have an investment in Twinax Printers?
Areyou moving to a hosted "cloud" power9?
Are you relocating your Power9/8/7/6, i5, iSeries or AS400 to a different location and want to avoid the cost of re-cabling?
Are you planning to implement High Availability (HA) or Disaster Recovery (DR) plans?
Are you moving your system to a new location in your current building?
Do you need to eliminate SNA communications to your remote locations that currently have IBM 5494/5394, Perle 594e/494e/394 or other compatible Twinax Remote Controllers?
Are you eliminating remote AS/400s but still need to support Twinax CRTs and printers at the remote locations?

The diagrams below illustrates these Twinax. Controllers fit in a local configuration as well as a remote configuration.The same diagram applies to both Controllers.
Local Connection - to provide connectivity of your local Twinax CRTs and Printers to an System i Power9, Power8, iSeries or AS/400 that does not have Twinax Workstation Controllers. You can also use these two Twinax Controllers connected in this manner to provide full support of your Twinax Devices in a High Availability scenario.
Remote Connection - to provide TCP/IP connectivity for the Twinax CRTs and Printers at your remote locations that are currently connected to IBM 5494/5394, Perle 594/494 or other compatible Twinax Remote Controllers. Also for supporting locations where you currently have an iSeries that will be eliminated when you upgrade to a more powerful i5 at your host location.
