Thin nodes
The thin nodes occupy half of a drawer (one slot). Up to sixteen of these nodes
can be housed in a tall frame. When installed singly within a drawer, these nodes
must be placed in an odd-numbered node slot. The wide nodes are compatible
with the SP Switch and the SP Switch-8, but they are not compatible with the
High Performance Switch.
The following thin nodes are supported:
375 MHz POWER3 SMP nodes (F/C 2056)
332 MHz SMP nodes (F/C 2050)
The following thin nodes are currently available:
375 MHz POWER3 SMP nodes (F/C 2056)
