This is no "standard" MicroVAX designation. It indicates a KA655 QBus
CPU. This is nice, as it is tne 2nd fastest QBus CPU available. This CPU
was used in MicroVAX III+, 3600 and 3900. Sometimes it can be found as
an upgarde in MicroVAX II, III, 3500 or 3800 systems. So most likely you
will get a BA23 or BA123 or BA213 or BA215 enclosure. Use google to get
more information about this enclosures.

I think all this enclosures are switchable from 120 V to 240 V. BA23 and
BA123 use "standard" power cords, BA213 and BA215 need a different cord.
The connector looks like a normal "standard" connector, but it has a
notch.
