The Macintosh Performa 6116CD is a model in Apple's Performa 6100 series, the consumer versions of the Power Macintosh 6100/60. Apple's specification sheet gives an introduction date of 17 July 1995 and a 700 MB SCSI hard drive.[1] Apple's service manual names it on its title page but does not list its configuration.[2] EveryMac lists it with an external 14.4k modem and a business software bundle but no monitor, at US$1,900 (order number M4094LL/A).[3]
Apart from the drive, monitor, modem and software it is the same machine as the Macintosh Performa 6110CD, whose page has the model table, the full specification, Apple's symptom charts and the battery and reset procedures.[2]

| Video | HDI-45 port driven from main memory, with no VRAM; HDI-45 to DB-15 adapter for 12-inch to 17-inch Apple monitors[2] |
| Expansion | One internal slot for a processor-direct card, or a 7-inch NuBus card with an adapter[2] |

The battery is a 3.6 V lithium cell.[1] Apple's test, in the Power Macintosh 6100 Service Source, is to replace it below 3.2 V on the 10 V DC range.[4] Neutralise leakage from a lithium cell with bicarbonate of soda; see Battery Explosion, Capacitor or Corrosion Damage.
