M9047's are grant continuity cards (no circuitry, just PC boards
with pins on the edge connector jumpered together to pass interrupt
and DMA signals to the next slot.)

A M9405 is a Q22-bus cable connector. This is what you use to hook
multiple Q-bus chassis together into a multi-box system. On the
other end of the cable you need a M9404.

For information on connecting multiple Q-bus systems together, telling
you which variants on the M9405 and M9404 cards you'll need for specific
CPU/backplane combinations, see Micronote 29, "Q-bus Expansion Concepts", at

> The module database at <http://www.neurotica.com/dec-info/>
>is down, it appears, and I can't find another link like it right now.
