FYI, in my 750, the UNIBUS expansion has a L0010 in the main cabinet and
a M9014 in the expansion cabinet. I didn't note the details of the
cable(s) between the two when I did the inventory of my system.
On another topic, we had discussed me going through my B1000 stuff and
Burroughs contacts to assist the buyer of that system that you
facilitated. Unfortunately, all that I have come up with are dead ends.
I found additional material, but is all pretty much now unreadable.

a 'Unibus Out', you can plug a Unibus
cable in there to link to an
expansion box. The official way involved special dual-height cards at
each end with 3 40-way Berg-type cables linking them.
So I'm trying to look into this (BC11 cables being unobtainium these days, at
least at prices which are less their weight in gold).
I see 'three' different kinds of 'UNIBUS to cables' cards listed:
M9014 UNIBUS to 3 H854s
M9015 3 H854s to UNIBUS
M9031 UNIBUS to 3 3M cables for 11/74
M9042 UNIBUS to 3 H854, Dual
I assume the M9014/M9015 are a pair, one used at the start of the cable, and
one at the end?
Does anyone know the difference between these three, and is my guess about the
M9014/M9015 being a pair correct? (I did look for documentation to answer
these, but couldn't find any - although maybe I didn't look in the right
places.)
