Optional features

The four slot IBM Ethernet Switch B04R (4003-R04), eight slot IBM Ethernet Switch B08R (4003-R08), sixteen slot IBM Ethernet Switch B16R (4003-R16), and thirty- two slot IBM Ethernet Switch B32R (4003-R32) models are available with a number of selectable options. Various Management, Switch Fabric, and Interface Modules can be installed in each slot, providing flexible connectivity options. Base models do not include any Interface Modules, and it is recommended that you order at least one to provide connectivity. You are not required to populate all ports with transceivers, but ports can only be used with the IBM supplied transceivers specified in this document.

All base systems include one Management Module and a varying number of Switch Fabric Modules and power supplies to support full throughput and power functionality.

32-slot Management Module (#1651): The 32-slot Management Module (#1651) controls the IBM Ethernet Switch B32R (4003-R32) hardware components, runs the networking protocols, and provides the Real Time Operating System (RTOS). Each 4003-R32 chassis requires one management module and can accept a second one for redundancy. Each management module contains two PCMCIA slots (requires #8710 for usage), a console port, and a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port for management.

4/8/16-slot Management Module (#1652): The 4/8/16-slot Management Module (#1652) controls the IBM Ethernet Switch B04R (4003-R04), IBM Ethernet Switch B08R (4003-R08), and IBM Ethernet Switch B16R (4003-R16) hardware components, runs the networking protocols, and provides the Real Time Operating System (RTOS). Each 4003-R04, 4003-R08, or 4003-R16 chassis requires

one management module and can accept a second one for redundancy. Each management module contains two PCMCIA slots (requires #8710 for usage), a console port, and a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port for management.

8/16-slot Switch Fabric Module (#1653): The 8/16-slot Switch Fabric Module (#1653) for the IBM Ethernet Switch B08R (4003-R08) and IBM Ethernet Switch B16R (4003-R16) chassis switches data packets between interface modules installed within the same chassis. The 4003-R08 accommodates three switch fabric modules with two required for full throughput plus one redundant. The 4003-R16 accommodates four switch fabric modules with three required for full throughput plus one redundant.

4-slot Switch Fabric Module (#1654): The 4-slot Switch Fabric Module (#1654) for the IBM Ethernet Switch B04R (4003-R04) chassis switches data packets between interface modules installed within the same chassis. The 4003-R04 accommodates three switch fabric modules with two required for full throughput plus one redundant.

4-port Ethernet Module 10 GbE (XFP) (#1661): The 4-port Ethernet Module 10 GbE (XFP) (#1661) interface module allows the IBM Ethernet Switch B04R (4003- R04), IBM Ethernet Switch B08R (4003-R08), IBM Ethernet Switch B16R (4003- R16), and IBM Ethernet Switch B32R (4003-R32) to connect to other network devices at a fixed speed of 10 Gbps. Each physical port requires a qualified XFP transceiver for connectivity.

16-port Ethernet Module 10 GbE (SFP+) (#1662): The 16-port Ethernet Module 10 GbE (SFP+) (#1662) interface module allows the IBM Ethernet Switch B04R (4003-R04), IBM Ethernet Switch B08R (4003-R08), IBM Ethernet Switch B16R (4003-R16), and IBM Ethernet Switch B32R (4003-R32) to connect to other network devices at a fixed speed of 10 Gbps. Each physical port requires a qualified SFP+ transceiver for connectivity.

24-port Ethernet Module 10/100/1000 MbE (RJ45) (#1663): The 24-port Ethernet Module 10/100/1000 MbE (RJ45) (#1663) interface module allows the
