iSeries IBM 9406, #5078 PCI EXPANSION UNIT

(#5078) PCI Expansion Unit

(Only available as REFURBISHED as of October 1, 2004)

The #5078 PCI Expansion Unit installs on top of the #9079 Base I/O Tower of the Model 840, and on top of the #5074 PCI Expansion Tower. The #5078 has 14 PCI slots, which allows up to 11 PCI IOAs to be added. Disk units and removable media devices are not supported and may not be installed in the #5078.

#5078 includes a bus adapter to provide HSL interface to the system (configurator should add one of the following to the order);

#9691 Base Bus Adapter (Copper HSL)

To be specified when attaching to copper HSL ports

#9739 Base Optical Bus Adapter (Optical HSL)

To be specified when attaching to optical HSL ports

Available only with Models 830 and 840

The #5078 includes two electrical cables to connect to a #5074/#9079 power source.

If ordered with an initial order for a #5074/#9079, the #5074/#9079 will ship with the #5078 installed. The #5078 may also be ordered as an MES to an existing #5074/#9079.

The #5078 may be on the same, or a separate HSL loop as the #5074/#9079. If the #5078 and the #5074/#9079 are on the same HSL loop, a #1460, 3m HSL Cable is required to connect the #5078 and the #5074/#0979. If the #5074/#9079 and the #5078 are on separate HSL loops, then one or two HSL cables must be on the order. Select two HSL cables if the #5078 is the first/only expansion tower/unit on an HSL loop, select one HSL cable if the #5078 coexists with other expansion towers/units on an HSL loop.

#1460 3m HSL Cable

#1461 6m HSL Cable

#1462 15m HSL Cable

#1470 6m HSL Optical Cable (Models 830 and 840 only)

#1471 30m HSL Optical Cable (Models 830 and 840 only) (Only available as REFURBISHED)

#1472 100m HSL Optical Cable (Models 830 and 840 only)

#1473 250m HSL Optical Cable (Models 830 and 840 only)

Select one of the following SPCN cables per expansion unit:

#1464 6m SPCN Cable

#1465 15m SPCN Cable

#1466 - 30m SPCN Cable (Only available as REFURBISHED)
