About This Manual

This manual is written for professional system integrators and PC technicians. It provides information for the installation and use of the SuperServer 6026TT-GTRF/ GIBXRF/GIBQRF. Installation and maintenance should be performed by experi- enced technicians only.

The SuperServer 6026TT-GTRF/GIBXRF/GIBQRF is a GPU-ready, 2U Twin (two serverboards/nodes in a 2U chassis) rackmount server based on the SC827HD- R1400B server chassis and four Super X8DTT-HF+/X8DTT-HIBXF+/X8DTT- HIBQF+ serverboards. The "(H)" in the product name indicates that the system is cableless.

The main differences between the various serverboards and the servers they are in is shown in the table below:
