Riser
3 MCA slots + DBA-ESDI connector.
Video
There's no VGA subsystem on the planar.
This machine can't take any Display Adapters other than the DA B-II
as its video sub-system.
Notice that the display adapter seen HERE
is not a DA B-II. It looks more like a DA II, III, or V from the
AVEC series, but it has 5 oscillators similar
to the DA B-II. It's currently unknown
whether this is the original DA B (BVEC) adapter or perhaps some uncommon
member of the AVEC family.
PS/55Z 5510-T, which is very similar to 5540, can be equipped with XGA.

Hard Disk interface
Same as 8570 ESDI (more or less).
System Overview
|
|
One SIMM slot J14 is placed on the planar and additional 2 slots are
provided through SIMM riser card which goes to connector J9.
A bus riser for J8 connector has MCA card slots on the left side and
an ESDI HDD DB 2 connector is on the right side.
I/O connectors are placed as outline shows (Cable connectors are plugged in
vertically).
