Table 2-19 is a list of low-profile adapter cards and their equivalent in full height.
Table 2-19 Equivalent adapter cards
Before adding or rearranging adapters, use the System Planning Tool to validate the new
adapter configuration. See the System Planning Tool website:
http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/tools/systemplanningtool/
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software required to support the
new feature and determine whether there are any existing update prerequisites to install. To
do this, use the IBM Prerequisite website:
https://www-912.ibm.com/e_dir/eServerPreReq.nsf
The following sections discuss the supported adapters and provide tables of orderable
feature numbers. The tables indicate operating support, AIX (A), IBM i (i), and Linux (L), for
each of the adapters.
2.8.5 LAN adapters
To connect a Power 770 and Power 780 to a local area network (LAN), you can use the
Integrated Multifunction Card. For more information see 2.7.2, “System ports” on page 70.
