#9738
#2838/#9738 PCI 100/10 Mbps Ethernet IOA
The #2838/#9738 provides attachment to standard 100 Mbps high-speed Ethernet LANs and allows attachment to
existing 10 Mbps Ethernet LANs. The #9738 is a base LAN. If a #2838/#9738 PCI 100/10 Mbps Ethernet IOA is selected
to run on a #2857 Integrated PC Server or #2866 PCI Integrated Netfinity Server, then one specify #0222 100/10 Mbps
Ethernet on IPCS/Integrated Netfinity Server is required. The IOA is capable of operating in half or full duplex mode. The
adapter comes standard with an RJ45 connector for attachment to UTP-5 media #9738 is a base LAN. Cabling for 10
Mbps must be CAT-3 or CAT-5, cabling for 100 Mbps must be CAT-5 that meets or exceeds Industry Standard EIA/TIA
T568A or T568B. Maximum cable length is 100 meters.
High-speed PCI slots required: One
The #2838 is a Customer Install Feature for an MES that only includes CIF features.
#2857 #2857 Integrated PC Server
The #2857 contains a 200 MHz Pentium® Processor, four main storage slots and two LAN IOA slots for high
performance serving to LAN attached PCs. Between one and four of the following main storage features must also be
installed:
#2861 32 MB Integrated PC Server Memory
#2862 128 MB Integrated PC Server Memory
Minimum one and maximum two of any of the following LAN IOAs are supported. Only one of the IOAs can be
#2838/#9738:
#2723 PCI Ethernet IOA Specify #0221 is required for each IOA installed.
#2724 PCI 16/4 Mbps Token Ring IOA Specify #0220 is required for each IOA installed
#2838 PCI 100/10 Mbps Ethernet IOA Specify #0222 is required for each IOA installed
Only one of the following base LAN IOAs is supported:
#9723 PCI Ethernet IOA Specify #0221 is required for each IOA installed
#9724 PCI Token Ring IOA Specify #0220 is required for each IOA installed
#9738 PCI 100/10 Mbps Ethernet IOA Specify #0222 is required for each IOA installed
The #2857 also comes with an external attach cable which provides industry standard keyboard, mouse.
This also allows for optional use of serial and parallel ports.
If running Windows NT on the #2857, then:
#0325 Integrated PC Server Extension Cable for Windows NT is required.
#1700 Integrated PC Server Keyboard/Mouse for Windows NT is default in the U.S.A.
A display must be connected to the IPCS to support Windows NT.

If running OS/2® on the #2857, then:
#0325 and #1700 are not allowed.
If running Novell NetWare on the #2857, then:
#0325 and #1700 are not allowed.
A maximum of 256 MB IOP memory is supported.
Last supported release for OS/2 and Novell NetWare is OS/400 V4R5
PCI slots required: Two in reserved positions in the base system unit or in the #7101 System Expansion Unit.
