IBM Power7 8202-E4B (#5271) - PCIe LP 4-Port 10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet Adapter</p><p>This is the Low Profile (LP) equivalent of feature number 5717. The 4-Port 10/100/1000 Base-TX PCI Express Adapter is short/ low-profile, full duplex, four-ported Gigabit Ethernet adapter that can be configured to run any of the ports at 1000,100 or 10 Mbps data rate. This adapter interfaces to the system via a PCIe bus and connects to a network using a 4-pair CAT-5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable for distance of up to 100m. Each port is independent of one another and is boot capable under AIX Network install manager (NIM). The adapter conforms to the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard. The #5717 supports jumbo frames when running at the 1000 Mbps speed.</p><p>The 4-Port 10/100/1000 Base-TX PCI Express adapter (#5717) should be considered where maximum port density is required per I/O card slot. For a suggested maximum number of adapters considering performance, see the IBM System p PCI placement guide (SA76-0090) for information about the PCIe slots on your system unit.</p><p>Limitations: The 1000 Mbps speed is not supported in Half Duplex (HDX) mode.</p><p>Attributes provided: Four-port Gigabit Ethernet</p><p>Attributes required: 1 Low Profile (LP) slot</p><p>For 8202-E4B: (#5271)</p><p>Minimum required: 0</p><p>Maximum allowed: 4 (Initial order maximum: 4)</p><p>OS level required:</p><p>AIX Version 5.3 supported</p><p>AIX Version 6.1 supported</p><p>AIX Version 7.1 supported</p><p>SUSE Linux supported</p><p>Red Hat Linux supported</p><p>Refer to Software Requirements for specific O/S levels supported</p><p>Initial Order/MES/Both/Supported: Both</p><p>CSU: Yes</p><p>Return parts MES: No</p><p>Note:</p><p>Maximum of 4 supported in the CEC
