IBM 3174-81R: Model 81R remote 3174 Establishment Controller with diskette drive.

The IBM 3174-81R is a Model 81R IBM 3174 Establishment Controller, a remote-attached terminal control unit from the 3174 family that connects non-programmable terminals and printers to a host mainframe over an SDLC or similar remote link. This particular unit includes a diskette drive, used for loading and updating the controllers microcode and configuration without a direct local connection to the host. The 3174 Establishment Controller family provided a broad range of connectivity options and workstation attachment possibilities for IBM mainframe environments, and the 81R remote model was specifically designed for sites at a distance from the host system. Equipment of this generation occasionally remains in service in legacy mainframe environments or is retained as a maintenance spare for existing installations. Specifiers should confirm the exact host connectivity and microcode level required against their specific installation before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM legacy mainframe connectivity hardware. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
