  • The main computer that fits comfortably alongside a desk or table.

  • The system console connected to the computer for system activities.

  • An optional cabinet containing additional disk and tape drives for extra data storage.

  • The data communication and terminal controller, also called the DTC, that enables you to connect multiple terminals and printers to the system.

  • The external uninterruptible power system, also called the UPS, that can provide up to 15 minutes of battery backup power to the computer system.

  • Terminals or PCs set up on each user's desktop and connected to the DTC.

  • Various styles of printers conveniently located for easy access by several users.
