Hi Josh,
It was rereferred to as the Shoe Box, and usually had a M7270, MXV11,
and an RX interface. I think they came with a 18 bit backplane, but
can be rewired for 22 bit. I have one around here somewhere. They also
made a matching box with a pair of TU58s.

Hi all --
Anyone know anything about the DEC SB-11 enclosure? It's a small
(13"x12"x3.5" or so) chassis containing a power supply and a 4-slot
dual-height q-bus backplane. Very cute, and I want to put together a small
11/23 system in it. Anyone know the original intended usage for these
little things?
In particular, a power supply schematic would be helpful as the one in
mine is giving me trouble at the moment. (Just blows fuses when powered
up.) I can't find anything useful about it on the 'net. The full model
designation on this one is "OSB11-EA."
Thanks as always,
Josh
Is it the same as this one ?

Might be everything you need to know there.
No, that looks like something else entirely. However, I just now noticed
another ID on this device, on the rear below the Digital logo; it appears
the full name for this chassis is BA11-VA. And already I'm finding a bit
more useful information :).
Such as:
http://www.pdp-11.nl/ba11-boxes/ba11va/ba11va-info.html. Mine looks
identical to that, except it says "SB11" in orange on the front next to the
Digital logo. Now to track down that schematic...
