Octane2 Duo Overview
This chapter provides an overview of the Silicon Graphics Octane2 Duo option.
The Silicon Graphics Octane2 Duo option allows the connection of a second keyboard

workstation to be simultaneously used by two people.
In addition to adding connections for the keyboard and mouse, the upgrade kit also adds
more main memory and an additional hard disk drive.
