3174 can be attached to z900 through bus and tag cables also.
We have a few.

Hello list,

Yes, it does.

It can be ESCON attached 3174, or Bus&Tag attached 3174 connected through 
ESCON Converter. It is supported on every machine 'z' (z/900, z/800, z/990, 
z890, z9) and 9672's.

Supported models are 3174-22L, -12L, -21L, -11L.

Hello Victor

and if you use IBM ESCON converters, or the Optica replacements, you can 
connect them via an ESCON Director so long as you dedicate the connection 
inside the director.

We have been using converter attached 3174s for some years nowz900 and 
z990 boxes.

Bruce Hewson
