Greetings--

I'm looking for pin-out and signal information on IBM's 3W3S
video/monitor connector.  This connector may be ancient history as it
is on a video card instlled in a Powerstation 320 (7012) AIX server
from 1990.  I do not have the monitor that came with this machine and
would like to determine if I can connect a multiscan monitor with the
proper cabling/adapter.  Note that I am NOT referring to the typical
13W3 connector typical of Sun monitors.  The 3W3S connector has 3
coaxial connectors contained within a DB-15 (joystick size) connector.
No small pins like on a 13W3 connector.

Also if anyone knows of any sites with info on the IBM Powerstation
320 (7012), I'd greatly appreciate it if you could tell me......

Please email me...........

Thanks....

Rick
