DEC RX50 disks with mystery content

Hello, DEC enthusiasts - I've got some 5-1/4" disks here that purport to be from a DECmate (probably II) and may have data offloaded from a bigger system. But the disks don't have any recognizable trace of a filesystem on them; just vast swathes of data that looks like this:
