The IBM 1400 series of mid-range computers were second-generation (transistor-based) solid state business / general purpose decimal computers that IBM first introduced in October of 1959 in the form of the IBM 1401 Data Processing System. . Used as an independent system, or as an input / output peripheral for the (1950s-early 1960s) IBM 700 or 7000 mainframe series systems, the initial basic 1401 system consisted of the single cabinet sized Model A Console / Processing Unit, IBM 1402 Card Read-Punch, and the IBM 1403 printer. Later models would feature an expanded dual cabinet console (Models B-G), along with a variety of advanced peripherals such as the IBM 729 Magnetic Tape Units (Model II or IV), the IBM 7330 Magnetic Tape Unit, the IBM 1405 Disk Storage System, the IBM 1406 Core Storage Expansion Unit, and the IBM 1407 Console Inquiry Unit, with additional peripherals appearing over time. This model represents one of the dual expansion cabinet IBM 1401 Models B-G
