The 46M6184 IBM 10GB Ethernet Pass-Thru Module is a hardware component designed to be used in a BladeCenter chassis. The BladeCenter chassis is a modular platform that houses multiple blade servers, networking modules, and storage modules in a single enclosure. The 46M6184 module is used to provide Ethernet connectivity to the blade servers that are installed in the BladeCenter chassis.
In this article, we will discuss the key features and benefits of the 46M6184 IBM 10GB Ethernet Pass-Thru Module for BladeCenter, along with its technical specifications, installation process, and compatibility with other IBM products.
Key Features of the 46M6184 IBM Module for BladeCenterThe 46M6184 module is a high-performance Ethernet pass-thru module that is designed to provide high-speed connectivity to the blade servers installed in the BladeCenter chassis. Some of the key features of this module are as follows:
- 10GB Ethernet Connectivity: The 46M6184 module supports 10GB Ethernet connectivity, which provides a high-speed data transfer rate of up to 10 Gbps. This makes it ideal for use in data-intensive applications that require fast and reliable data transfer.
- Pass-Thru Design: The 46M6184 module is designed as a pass-thru module, which means that it does not have any processing capabilities. Instead, it simply passes through Ethernet traffic between the blade servers and the external network.
- Modular Design: The 46M6184 module is designed to be installed in a BladeCenter chassis, which allows for easy integration with other IBM products such as blade servers, storage modules, and networking modules.
- Multiple Ports: The 46M6184 module comes with four 10GB Ethernet ports, which provide high-speed connectivity to multiple blade servers at the same time.
- Easy Installation: The 46M6184 module is easy to install and can be done quickly by following the instructions provided in the user manual.
There are several benefits of using the 46M6184 IBM 10GB Ethernet Pass-Thru Module for BladeCenter, some of which are listed below:
- High-Speed Connectivity: The 10GB Ethernet connectivity provided by the 46M6184 module ensures fast and reliable data transfer between the blade servers and the external network, which is essential for data-intensive applications.
- Scalability: The modular design of the 46M6184 module allows for easy scalability, which means that additional modules can be added to the BladeCenter chassis to meet the growing needs of the organization.
- Cost-Effective: The pass-thru design of the 46M6184 module eliminates the need for additional processing capabilities, which helps to reduce the overall cost of the BladeCenter chassis.
- Easy Installation: The 46M6184 module is easy to install and can be done quickly by following the instructions provided in the user manual. This helps to reduce the deployment time and ensures that the module is up and running in no time.
