The catalog of IBM products features a selection of items—including hardware, services, and affiliated companies—associated with International Business Machines (IBM) Corporation and its antecedents dating back to the 1890s.

Context

IBM's range of products extends across more than a hundred years and includes manufactured equipment such as the AN/FSQ-7, which was produced by IBM but never marketed commercially. This compilation also encompasses customized machines created for clients like Columbia University's Astronomical Computing Bureau, as well as prototype devices designed to demonstrate IBM’s technological capabilities. Nonetheless, numerous RPQs, OEM components (for example, semiconductors), and consumables (such as punched cards) are excluded due to incomplete records.

It is common for IBM to assign the same model number to both entire systems and their integral parts; an illustration is the IBM 604 Calculating Unit, which forms part of the IBM 604 Calculating Punch. Moreover, model numbers have been reused by different divisions; for instance, IBM 01 could indicate either a keypunch machine or the initial electric typewriter, depending on the context.

Model numbers do not always correspond to chronological development. As an example, the IBM 402 tabulator represents an updated version of the earlier IBM 405.

Contemporary IBM hardware generally utilizes a machine type identifier consisting of three or four digits, complemented by a model number that combines letters and numerals. Additionally, products often carry marketing or brand names. For example, machine type 2107 identifies the IBM System Storage DS8000. While most entries are organized by machine types, some products are better known under their brand names. Users should exercise caution when searching by model numbers due to potential overlaps; for example, the IBM Enterprise Storage Server uses machine type 2105, whereas the IBM Infoprint 2105 printer corresponds to machine type 2705—thus searching for "IBM 2105" may produce results for different devices.

In 1928, IBM introduced punched cards featuring 80 columns with rectangular holes. Machines designed before this innovation but still in use retained their original model numbers; some were upgraded with 80-column readers or punches, leading to pre-1928 models incorporating newer technology.

This list arranges products according to machine classification and intended use rather than strictly by name, which means some entries appear multiple times—for example, the 1420 is cataloged under both the 1401 family and banking-related applications.

The naming conventions for IBM products have changed over time; examples include:

  • Mechanical Key Punch, Type 1 (1936)
  • Mechanical Punch, Type 001 (1946)

For clarity, this article employs the most descriptive or widely recognized designations; hence:

  • IBM 001: Mechanical Key Punch

Products originating from The Tabulating Machine Company can be identified by their production date prior to its merger into IBM in 1933.
