#2787 PCI-X Fibre Channel Disk Controller
The #2787 PCI-X Fibre Channel Disk Controller provides Fibre Channel
attachment capability for external disk devices. The #2787 supports
point-to-point and arbitrated loop topologies and has an LC-type cable connector.
Each #2787 is shipped with a wrap connector (part number 05N6767). The
#2787 supports 64-bit, 133MHz PCI-X bus speeds.
The following adapter kits are required when connecting SC-type cables to the
#2787:
#0371 - LC-SC Adapter Kit (50 um) can be ordered, both on initial, model
upgrades, and simple MES orders. This optional kit is used to attach SC-type
fibre (50 micron) cables to a #2787. The #0371 kit contains a 2m LC-ST cable
and ST-SC adapter for 50 micron fiber cable.
#0372 - LC-SC Adapter Kit (62.5 um) can be ordered, both on initial, model
upgrades, and simple MES orders. This optional kit is used to attach SC-type
fiber (62.5 micron) cables to a #2787. The #0372 kit contains a 2m LC-ST
cable and ST-SC adapter for 62.5 micron fiber cable.
An optics cleaning kit (part number 46G6844) and instruction sheet (part number
21P6238, form number SY27-2604) is supplied, one per system, when a #2787
is present or ordered.
The #2787 PCI-X Fibre Channel Disk Controller is the recommended
replacement card for the #2766 PCI Fibre Channel Disk Controller.
When used as a Direct Attached Adapter for Linux, order the #0626 in place of
the #2787.
#2793/#2794/#9793/#9794 PCI Dual WAN/Modem IOA
The #2793/#2794/#9793/#9794 PCI Dual WAN/Modem IOA cards all provide the
same interface. The #2793/#9793 are offered in all countries (regions) except
Australia and New Zealand, where the #9793/#9794 is offered instead. The
#9793/#9794 are base models.
Note: The battery for cache in the #2780 can be replaced without removing
the #2780 adapter from the system.
Note: Customers are to supply all Fibre Channel cables for the #2787 PCI-X
Fibre Channel Disk Controller.
