Attachments
The 3130 supports up to three simultaneously active attachment interfaces with
switching under microcode control. Only one IPDS host can be attached at a time.
The following are standard with every 3130:
PC Parallel Interface
Ethernet Interface (10BaseT, 10Base2, or 10Base5)
One optional interface slot is available for one of the following:
Twinaxial Interface
Token-Ring Interface
SDLC Interface
The data streams for each attachment are:
Attachment (Protocol) Data stream
Twinaxial (Arctic) IPDS
SDLC (SNA LU6.2 V.24) IPDS
SDLC (SNA LU6.2 V.35) IPDS
Token Ring (SNA LU6.2) IPDS
Token Ring (TCP/IP) IPDS/PCL-5e/PostScript L2
Token Ring (Novell SPX/IPX) PCL-5e/PostScript L2
