Wasn't the CXY08-M used in the DECserver 550 (or whatever it was called)? ?I
don't know if the OS's you mention support the board, but the DECserver that
used these had PDP-11/53 CPU's in them. ?I had a couple of the DECserver's,

A DECserver 550 is basically a M7554-SD KDJ11-SD, a M7516-PA DELQA-SA,
and one or more M3119-YA CXY08-M or M3118-YA CXA16-M, in a BA213 box.
I have a KDJ11-SD and have replaced its DECserver 550 EPROMs with
standard 11/53 EPROMs and have run 2.11BSD and RSTS/E 10.1 on and I'm
pretty sure I had no problem using both those OS with CXY08-M and
CXA16-M modules as terminal login connections.
I don't know if there are any programming interface differences
between a CXY08-M or a CXA16-M and an M3107 DHQ11. I think they are
basically equivalent.
