1.4 System Configurations

Sun Netra CP3220 blade servers can be installed into an ATCAshelf (chassis), as

shown in FIGURE1-4. The blade servers can be deployed in various electrical

configurations to suit user requirements.For example, the blade server can be

configured to boot from a network as a diskless client with either a frontpanel or

advanced rear transition module (ARTM) network connection. The Sun Netra

CP3220 blade server has a slot for a Compact Flash card (optional) and 8 DIMM

sockets for memory.

1.4.1 AMC Modules

TheSun Netra CP3220 blade server has two AMC slots, with four laneseach of PCIe,

to provide additional I/O to the front panels or to the rear of the enclosurewhen

used with an advanced rear transition module.

The Sun Netra CP3220 blade server supports AMC.1 Type4E2 cards, as defined by

the AMC specification.
