AS400 IBM 9406 LAN WAN, #5721 PCI-X 10Gbps Ethernet-SR IOA
#5721 PCI-X 10Gbps Ethernet-SR IOA
Provides 10Gbps Ethernet server connection using a PCI-X DDR IOA. Supports distances of up to 33m using 62.5um multimode fiber or 300m using 50um multimode fiber with 2000MHz km minimum model bandwidth at 850nm. Adapter connector type is LC.
The 10 Gb Ethernet-SR PCI-X 2.0 DDR Adapter is designed to provide a PCI-X based server connection. The adapter conforms to the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard and supports jumbo frames.
The 10 Gb Ethernet-SR PCI-X supports the following distances:
- Up to 33m using 62.5 um multimode fiber with 200 MHz*km minimum modal bandwidth at 850 nm
- Up to 300m using 50 um multimode fiber with 2000 MHz*km minimum modal bandwidth at 850 nm
The adapter is designed to run in standard PCI-X v2.0 and PCI-X v1.0a compliant systems with 64-bit PCI-X BusMaster slots at 133 Mode 1 or Mode 2. The adapter draws power from the PCI-X 3.3 V supplies and is keyed to fit only into a 3.3 V slot. The adapter supports 1M x 8 bit boot FLASH ROM and has a 240 KB on-chip TX packet buffer and a 32 MB on-chip RX packet buffer.
The FRU part numbers for the adapter are:
- Adapter, 03N4590 (Designed to comply with RoHS requirement.)
- Wrap plug, 11P3847
The adapter provides the following features:
- Single-slot, short form factor, 6.6 by 4.2 inch, half-length PCI cards
- 64-bit Direct Bus Mastering on the PCI-X bus
- Dual Address Cycle for access to 64-bit addresses
- PCI-X split transactions
- DMA engine for movement of command, status, and network data across PCI-X
- 240 KB on-chip TX packet buffer
- 32 MB on-chip RX packet buffer
- 1 MB Boot Flash ROM
- Jumbo frames (9 KB)
- Interrupts coalescing
- 802.1q VLAN tagging and stripping (IBM® System i® models do not support VLANs)
- Conforms to IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard
Operating system or partition requirements
- AIX 5L™ Version 5.3 with the 5300-04 Technology Level
- AIX 5L Version 5.2 with the 5200-08 Technology Level
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux® version 4 U2
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 SP3
#5721 does not support SNA. #5721 is a smart IOA and operates only in IOP-less mode, even when used by i5/OS.
