9. See Fibre Channel Solutions Overview section for additional configuration information.
10.The 2108R3L SAN Data Gateway Router Ultra SCSI LVD port provides one integrated short-wave optical port and two SCSI ports for tape storage connections (LVD, HVD and
single-ended).
11. xSeries 232 includes a full-duplex, 10/100Mbps Ethernet PCI controller.
12. In a fault-tolerant networking environment, using the fault-tolerant software delivered with the Ethernet adapters of a single manufacturer is recommended. Installing fault-
tolerant solutions provided by multiple manufacturers may cause failures if the intermediate drivers provided with the adapters are not compatible.The onboard Ethernet is Intel-
based, which is compatible with the three Intel-based optional Ethernet adapters (P/N 06P3601, 06P3701, 22P4901).
13. This server supports Wake on LAN and Alert-on-LAN functions through the integrated Ethernet controller only. These functions are not supported for optional PCI adapters.
14. xSeries 232 includes two USB ports and two serial ports.
15. Due to homologation variances, modem availability may differ by country.
16. See Appendix E for details on Serial I/O options and configuration limitations.
17. Provides an ESCON MIC and a DB9 Serial Port. Cables are not included but are available through S/390 channels. Contact your IBM representative for additional information.
18. A maximum of two 9086001 adapters (installed in nonadjacent slots) are supported in a single server.
19. PCI Fast/Wide Ultra SCSI Adapter (P/N 02K3454) provides one external 68-pin high density connector that supports external SCSI devices such as tape enclosures.

1. xSeries 232 base models include a single 385W power supply and a single 9ft 110V power cord with an IEC 320-
C13 connector on the system end and NEMA 5-15P on the other end. Power supply redundancy in base models may
be achieved by removing the standard power supply and installing two or three optional 250W Hot-Swap Redundant
Power Supplies (P/N 33L3760). xSeries Hot-Swap Power Conversion Kit (P/N 24P3513) is required when optional
power supplies are added to base models. Models shipped standard with power redundancy are equipped with two
hot-swap 250W power supplies. A third hot-swap 250W power supply may be added for robust configurations. The
hot-swap power supply backplane is included in redundant models. To assist in determining when an additional
power supply is required to preserve redundancy, a “Non-Redundant LED” is a standard feature.
2. 250W Hot-Swap Redundant Power Supply (P/N 33L3760) includes a single 6ft power cord for connection to a low
voltage wall outlet. xSeries Hot-Swap Power Supply Conversion Kit (P/N 24P3513) must be installed prior to adding
optional power supplies in base models, which include a single 385W power supply.
3. xSeries Hot-Swap Power Supply Conversion Kit (P/N 24P3513) includes a hot-swap power backplane. Use when
installing additional power supplies in base models (removal of standard power supply required).
4. For runtimes and UPS attributes see Appendix C: UPS Runtime Estimate.
5. Height is 3U. See Rack Cabinets and Options section for supported IBM racks.
6. Height is 5U. See Rack Cabinets and Options section for supported IBM racks.
7. xSeries 232 uses an SVGA controller (S3 Savage4 chipset) with 8MB of video memory.
8. Installation within a rack requires optional Monitor Compartment (P/N 94G7444).
9. Installation within a rack requires optional Netfinity Flat Panel Monitor Rack Mount Kit II (P/N 37L6888) and Netfinity
Rack Keyboard Tray (P/N 28L4707). A space saver keyboard may coexist within the same 28L4707 keyboard tray.
