Cell Component

Express5800/A1160 Cell

In Express5800/A1160 systems, hardware components are organized into cells. The main components of a cell are

Main logic module that hosts the processors, processor voltage regulator modules, and node controller. (The node controller interconnects the components of a cell and provides the connection among the cells in a multiple-cell system.)

Memory board that contains the DIMM sockets for the fully buffered DIMMs.

I/O subsystem that includes the I/O riser board, PCIe carriers, and PCIe cards.

Power supplies.

Fan modules.

Peripherals including drive tray and hard drives, DVD drive, and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) RAID controller.

Management and maintenance components (EXPRESSSCOPE® Monitor and management board).

Figure 2-1 illustrates the main components of a cell.
