5796 and 7314-G30 expansion units Sundance-IB
7314 Dual 5796 I/O Unit Enclosure 19-inch Rack Mounting Hardware
The #7314 provides the mounting hardware required to install a #5796 PCI-DDR 12X Expansion Drawer in a
#0551, #0553, #0554 or #0555 19-inch rack. The enclosure can accommodate two #5796 drawers, side by
side, but it may also be used with only one #5796 drawer installed.
4 EIA units of rack space are required in a #0551, #0553, #0554 or #0555 rack.
The #7314 has rails adjustable to 29.25 inches depth.
Supported on Model 570 (POWER6).
The #7314 is a Customer Install Feature.
For System i POWER6 model 570 models, the only supported I/O drawer supporting 12X loop attachment is
the #5796 12X I/O Drawer. Two #5796 drawers can be enclosed in a #7314 enclosure. Key characteristics
of the #5796 include:
– 6 high speed, PCI-X DDR slots per #5796
– Dual mode or IOP-less IOAs only (no IOP support)
Picture shows two #5796s in a #7314 enclosure

H192246 : SPCN cable FC 6006 requirements on MMA
TEXT:
This tip resolves the confusion over the
requirement that multi-enclosure 9117 MMA
systems have an SPCN cable installed between the two Service
Interface cards located in the top 2 CEC enclosures. These cards are
also commonly referred to as FSP or Service Processor cards.
The SPCN cable completes the SPCN cable loop
when optional external I/O drawers or towers are connected.
Systems equipped with Firmware release 01EM320 or later will
automatically have Service Processor redundancy enabled, so both
FSPs must be included in the SPCN loop to allow either FSP to control
the external devices.
The IBM order system was recently updated to force
the inclusion of the SPCN cable between the FSP cards
in the top two enclosures regardless of whether the
order included external I/O drawers. This
configuration requirement insures that the cable is
already available or installed in the event that the
system configuration is changed to include external
I/O drawers. Orders for multi-enclosure systems
shipped prior to 2008 did not include the cable;
however, the order system will now automatically add
this cable when any MES activity is processed against
those systems.
From a functional perspective, this cable is NOT
required UNLESS external I/O drawers are present. The cable is NOT
Levko Fattori IBM Slovenia 7
required for Service Processor failover capability to be enabled or to
function correctly. However, if the cable is available, it should be
installed.
The following information is in the Sales Manual.
It is provided for reference.
Each p570 system with two or more CEC enclosures (eight
or more processor cores) that includes the attachment of
remote I/O drawers must have one Power Control Cable
(#6006 or similar) to connect the Service Interface Card
in the first enclosure to the Service Interface Card in
the second enclosure. In these configurations both
Service Interface Cards must be included in the Power
Control Cable loop.
(#6006) Power Control Cable (SPCN) - 3 meter
This feature provides a three-meter power control cable.
Attributes provided: 3M power control cable.
Attributes required: two drawers in the same rack.
For 9117-MMA: (#6006)
- Minimum required: 0
- Maximum allowed: no max (Initial order maximum: no max)
- OS level required: none
Initial Order/MES/Both/Supported: Both
CSU: Yes
Return parts MES: No
Note: Each system with two or more CEC enclosures requires one
SPCN cable to connect the Service Interface Card in the first
enclosure (uppermost enclosure in the stack) with the Service
Interface Card in the second enclosure.

#6446 12X Short Run 5796 Attach
The #6446 adapter provides the interface for attachment of the #5796 I/ O Drawer to a 12X Channel
loop.The adapter includes two 12X Channel connectors and is inserted into the #5796. This adapter does not
include the repeater function and is intended to support configurations where the host system and the
#5796 I/O drawers in the loop are located in the same rack.
The 12X cables attached to this adapter have the following restrictions. Cables between this adapter and a
host system cannot exceed 3.0 meters in length. Cables between two I/O drawers cannot exceed 1.5 meters
if both I/O drawers include this Short Run adapter feature #6446. Cables between two I/O drawers cannot
exceed 3.0 meters if either of the I/O drawers includes this Short Run adapter feature #6446. The
required 12X cables are ordered under a separate feature number. For longer cables, see the long run
adapter #6457.
There is a connecting rule for 12X cables and 12X adapters. For more information about this rule, see 4.13.1,
“System i POWER6 Model 570 I/O enhancements” on page 299.
Supported on Model 570 (POWER6).
The #6446 can be attached only #5796 I/O drawer.
The #6446 is a Customer Install Feature
#6457 12X Long Run 5796 Attach
The #6457 adapter provides the interface for attachment of the #5796 I/ O drawer to a 12X channel loop.
The adapter includes two 12X channel connectors and is inserted in the #5796. This adapter includes the
repeater function and can support longer cable loops allowing drawers to be located in adjacent racks. The
12X cables up to 8 meters in length can be attached to this adapter. The required 12X cables are ordered
under a separate feature number.
There is a connecting rule for 12X cables and 12X adapters. For more information about this rule, see 4.13.1,
“System i POWER6 Model 570 I/O enhancements” on page 299.

If Drawers are in the same Rack as the system unit:
Cable length should be < 3.5 m
FC 6446 in Drawers will be ok.
Cables from drawer to drawer cannot be longer than 1.5m!
3.5M and you are ok with FC6446
Also drawer to drawer, if the drawers are together then you stay under 1.5 meter and
FC6446 is OK.
So if you daisy chain IO drawers that are all close together and you are in the same rack
as the 570 you

Levko Fattori IBM Slovenia 6 H192246 : SPCN cable FC 6006 requirements on MMA TEXT: This tip resolves the confusion over the requirement that multi-enclosure 9117 MMA systems have an SPCN cable installed between the two Service Interface cards located in the top 2 CEC enclosures. These cards are also commonly referred to as FSP or Service Processor cards. The SPCN cable completes the SPCN cable loop when optional external I/O drawers or towers are connected. Systems equipped with Firmware release 01EM320 or later will automatically have Service Processor redundancy enabled, so both FSPs must be included in the SPCN loop to allow either FSP to control the external devices. The IBM order system was recently updated to force the inclusion of the SPCN cable between the FSP cards in the top two enclosures regardless of whether the order included external I/O drawers. This configuration requirement insures that the cable is already available or installed in the event that the system configuration is changed to include external I/O drawers. Orders for multi-enclosure systems shipped prior to 2008 did not include the cable; however, the order system will now automatically add this cable when any MES activity is processed against those systems. From a functional perspective, this cable is NOT required UNLESS external I/O drawers are present. The cable is NOT

The following information is in the Sales Manual. It is provided for reference. Each p570 system with two or more CEC enclosures (eight or more processor cores) that includes the attachment of remote I/O drawers must have one Power Control Cable (#6006 or similar) to connect the Service Interface Card in the first enclosure to the Service Interface Card in the second enclosure. In these configurations both Service Interface Cards must be included in the Power Control Cable loop. (#6006) Power Control Cable (SPCN) - 3 meter This feature provides a three-meter power control cable. Attributes provided: 3M power control cable. Attributes required: two drawers in the same rack. For 9117-MMA: (#6006) - Minimum required: 0 - Maximum allowed: no max (Initial order maximum: no max) - OS level required: none Initial Order/MES/Both/Supported: Both CSU: Yes Return parts MES: No Note: Each system with two or more CEC enclosures requires one SPCN cable to connect the Service Interface Card in the first enclosure (uppermost enclosure in the stack) with the Service Interface Card in the second enclosure.
