The attachment of a single RXE-100 Remote Expansion Enclosure is also supported, as shown in Figure 1-1. The RXE-100 has six PCI-X slots standard, upgradable to 12 PCI-X slots, giving the customer up to a total of 12 PCI-X or 18 PCI-X slots respectively.
In addition to the single-nodeconfigurations, three additional two-node configurations are possible:
A single 16-way system comprised of two eight-way x440 nodes, as shown in Figure 1-2 on page 5. This will be available in November 2002.
A single 12-way system comprised of an eight-way and a four-way x440, as shown in Figure 1-3 on page 5. This will be available in early 2003.
A single eight-way system comprised of two four-way x440 nodes, as shown in Figure 1-3 on page 5. This will be available in early 2003.
Each of these configurations can optionally also have an RXE-100 attached (see Figure 1-2 on page 5 for an example).
