The Origin 350 / Onyx 350 are mid-range server and visualization systems. As such they are successors to the Origin 300 / Onyx 300 systems. Based on the same core technology the Onyx 4 system was introduced.
All of these systems are members of the Chimera family which also includes the Tezro workstation. The three systems are based on the same hardware featuring SGIs NUMAflex technology. Adding a VPro graphics option to an Origin 350 makes it an Onyx 350. The difference between the Onyx 350 and the Tezro is that the latter is limited in expansion.
This particular Onyx350 setup includes two systems linked up together to vastly increase computing power, and happens to be a prototype.
