IBM System x3650 M4 26

The specific slots that are available depend on the riser cards installed in Riser socket 1 and Riser socket

2, as shown in the following table. Standard models have 69Y5321 installed in Riser socket 1.

Tip: All slots support full-height adapters. Slots 1, 4, and 5 support full-length adapters, whereas slots 2,

3, and 6 (when present) support half-length adapters.

Network adapters

x3650 M4 supports four integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports. Optionally, two 10 Gb Ethernet ports can be

added by installing one of the available dual-port 10 Gb Ethernet mezzanine cards listed in the following

table. These cards use a dedicated connector on the motherboard and do not consume a PCI expansion

slot.

Integrated NICs have the following features:

Intel I350AM4 chip



Four GbE ports



TCP Offload Engine (TOE) support



Wake on LAN support



802.1Q VLAN tagging support



NIC Teaming (load balancing and failover)



The following table lists additional supported network adapters.
