DEC RX02-PA?

[davemaho at rcn.com]

It looks like it's from a VT-278 setup, sometimes called the 'DECMATE 1. I had two complete setups, and now have one left. With the VT-278, it will run OS-278, COS-300, and WPS-8 (My systems were both WPS-8's, but I have a copy of VT-278 somewhere in my physical 'archives').

Straight-8 
2 '8/e's (one RXO1 based, one RX02 based) 
ASR-33, ASR-35, VT-101, VT-102 
VT-278 
'Bits' of all.....

I found this on eBay, and I'm not sure what it is: 
http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-DIGITAL-RX02-COMPUTER-SYSTEM-2-FLOPPY-DRIVES-UNTESTED-T27-/181827282211?hash=item2a55c02523 

I haven't seen RX-02s in a case like this before, and some Googling 
doesn't seem to reveal much of anything. 

Does anyone know what this is exactly? 

Thanks!
