The Unibus trouble shooting handbook describes 4 or so 11/05 backplanes.
Mine is still packed away.
The 8K and 16K are not interchangable. I have seen systems where the
backplane has been changed, so I would check the part number first.

Ok, I decided to dive into the PDP-11/05 a bit tonight. First I'm
trying to make sure I have all the right boards for when the time
comes to assemble the system. I have the two CPU boards (M7260 and
M7261, actually three of the latter!), the M9970A SCL connector
board, and two M930 terminators...so now I need some memory.
The stamped silver tag on the side of the chassis says "11/05 SC"
which I assume means it's got an 11/05S backplane in it. This
assumption is supported by the board location sticker inside the card
cage, which is labeled for a 16K core subsystem (H217, G114, G235,
M8293).
The problem is, I don't have that core subsystem...I have enough
boards (in multiple copies) to put together an 8K subsystem, using
H214 (or H215?), G213, and G110 boards. My question is, will this
subsystem function in this backplane, or is the 11/05S backplane only
compatible with the higher-density core subsystem?
There's one other problem...The circuit breaker on the rear of the
chassis is physically damaged. Does anyone have a spare one kicking
around, or know of a currently-available replacement that I can order
from a component distributor?
Thanks,
-Dave
