 The IBM Multistation Keyboard generally refers to keyboards with the 5556 code, produced for use with the IBM 5550 Multistation computers. As the Multistation was mostly marketed in countries using CJK characters, the majority of Multistation keyboards originate from East Asia. The IBM Multistation Keyboard generally refers to keyboards with the 5556 code, produced for use with the IBM 5550 Multistation computers.

-Several models of 5556 do not appear to have been manufactured for use with the Multistation computer; the 5556-005 (and possibly 5556-006 and 5556-007) use a completely distinctive design and form factor that sets them apart. Likewise, there appear to be a number of keyboards with similar form factors to the 5556 Multistation keyboards which were not produced for the Multistation, such as the IBM 5576-001 and IBM 3194 (P/N 64X9710).+Several models of 5556 do not appear to have been manufactured for use with the Multistation computer; the 5556-005 (and possibly 5556-006 and 5556-007) use a completely distinctive design and form factor that sets them apart.
