OK you got my curiosity up as I was going by my memory. I just looked both
the BA11-V and the BA11-MA up in the microfiche as I sold the last BA11-MA I
had 6 to 9 months ago. The -MA is a quad wide, 4 slot card cage (H9270A
backplane with the H780A power supply) -MA is 115v and -MB is 230v The
other variants are -ME 115v, -MF 230v, -MH 115v w/ no logo, -MJ 230v w/ no
logo.

The BA11-V is dual wide 4 slot card cage with the H9281BA backplane. I have
not had one of these but I have had several of the -MA's.

The BA11-MA's supply looks to have a smaller footprint than the BA11-V. As
best as I can tell from the fiche. I do know the -MA's are physically close
to a dual TU58EX. At most a couple inches larger.
