DEC produced several generations of QBUS ROM cards, initially specialized to a bootstrapping use. Those early ones also included QBUS terminators; some of the later were multi-function cards, and included other functionality.

A number of ROM memory cards were also available:

Multi-function cards which included ROMs included:
