IBM AS/400 Advanced 36

The only connectors on the back of the machine are a female DB9 labeled
"UPS", another labeled "MI", a female DB25 with no label and two plug in
modules with the numbers 2609 and 6146 on them. I think I determined that
the 2609 is a two port communications adaptor and the 6146 is a floppy
adaptor. Where does the twinax cable connect?
