15. xSeries 250 includes two USB ports, two high-speed serial/asynchronous ports (NS16550A compatible), and one high-speed (up to 2MB/sec data transfer speed) bidirectional parallel
port supporting devices using ECP/EPP/SSP protocols adhering to the IEEE 1284 standard.
16. Due to homologation variances, modem availability may differ by country.
17. See Appendix E for details on Serial I/O Options and configuration limitations.
18. The Netfinity Advanced Systems Management Processor and Interconnect Bus integrated into xSeries 250 works with Netfinity Director to provide significant system management
function. When used with optional Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter (P/N 01K7209) and Netfinity Advanced System Management Interconnect Cable Kit (P/N
03K9309) additional management and control of up to 12 service processors from a remote console through a single modem or LAN connection is possible.
19. Includes PCI adapter, Netfinity Advanced System Management Interconnect Cable Kit components and 56W AC adapter which requires a separate power source. Provides an
integrated 10/100 Ethernet port and PCMCIA slot to support optional Netfinity Advanced System Management Token-Ring Connection (P/N 36L9654).
20. Required for all xSeries servers containing a standard Advanced System Management Processor that are to be interconnected for system management support through a LAN or
modem connection. Up to 12 service processors may be interconnected (including standard and optional processors) with an aggregate connection length of no more than 91.4m (300ft).
A customer-supplied Ethernet cable is required for each interconnection.
21. A maximum quantity of one is supported.
22. 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.
23. A maximum of two 9086001 adapters (installed in nonadjacent slots) are supported in a single server.
24. 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 250 includes two 250W hot-swap redundant power supplies, with the ability to accept two additional 250W
Hot-Swap Redundant Power Supply (P/N 33L3760). Each power supply includes its own 9ft power cord for attachment
to a low voltage UPS, PDU or wall outlet. To assist in determining when an additional power supply is required to
preserve redundancy, a “Non-Redundant LED” is a standard feature of the xSeries 250. Predicting whether a particular
configuration will require an additional power supply for redundancy is very complex. However, once the system is
installed, the “Non-Redundant LED” will indicate when an additional power supply is required. The following sample
configuration is provided as a reference.
Slot 1- Bus A- 66MHz- 3.3V or Universal
Slot 6- Bus B- 33MHz- 5V or Universal, Active PCI
Slot 2- Bus A- 66MHz- 3.3V or Universal
Slot 5- Bus B- 33MHz- 5V or Universal, Active PCI
Slot 4- Bus B- 33MHz- 5V or Universal, Active PCI
Slot 3- Bus B- 33MHz- 5V or Universal, Active PCI
