PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
For users looking for space-saving, cost-effective, flexible platforms
configurable to their individual needs, Digital offers the high performance
Rackmount DEC 3000 Model 700 AXP system. This workstation/server has the
same functionality as the desktop version (see the accompanying article in
this issue) and is supported by both the OpenVMS AXP and DEC OSF/1 operating
systems. It provides oustanding power in a system that can be integrated
into current applications while providing the benefits of expandable memory
and storage in compact packaging.
In addition to offering the new Rackmount DEC 3000 Model 700, Digital has
repriced the Rackmount DEC 3000 Model 600 AXP system.
BENEFITS
The rackmount versions of Model 700 and Model 600 add space-saving to the
benefits listed in the accompanying article for the desktop versions.
AVAILABILITY AND ORDERING
The repriced Model 600 is available now from local Digital sales offices and
Digital's business partners. The Rackmount DEC 3000 Model 700 will be
available in August 1994.
The system building blocks listed below require the addition of memory,
disks, monitors, and keyboards; the packaged systems require the addition of
monitors and keyboards. All systems shown are for the Northern Hemisphere,
with power at 120/240 V. Digital is offering upgrades from Rackmount Model
600 to Rackmount Model 700 with a field service installed board swap.
Rackmount users wanting to upgrade from a Model 400 need to purchase a
Rackmount Model 700 system.
OpenVMS AXP V6.1 and DEC OSF/1 V2.1 media and documentation kits are
available as separate line items. One media and documentation kit per site
is recommended even though all systems with a disk have factory installed
software.
