Sounds to me like something like the cards you could get for the early
Macs, and even the Amiga. which was basically a single board PC that would
let you run your DOS applications on your non-PC workstation. I'm guessing
with this one that you hook up the external monitor for it and an
application would let you switch over and use the host keyboard for the
card. I'll see if I can find if that's the case for this card.
PS: Are you sure it's 512MB and not 512KB? I don't think I've seen 286
address that much RAM.

Hi !
I need an help about a card I found in the 5363.
There's only a P/N, 92X7245.
A quick search on ebay gave poor results: IOP card.
It looked like a processor card: infact I found, under a heatsink, an
80286, 512MB of ram, ROM BIOS ...
Under OS/400, an IOP card is related to an embedded server, but under
SSP ?
It has only a DB-9 female connector, like a CGA or MDA video adapter,
but no provision for keyboard.
Any hint?
