IBM System x3400 M2 Manual page 5

• Faster graphics support makes monitoring and control more efficient.
• Virtual CD enables you to configure and diagnose a server remotely without a visit
from your IT staff.
• IMM supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP).
High-performance server subsystems
System x3400 M2 servers are high-throughput, two-way, SMP-capable network
servers with excellent performance scalability when you add memory and a second
processor. They incorporate powerful Intel Xeon DP processors with QPI. These flip-
chip DP chipset 36D processors feature advanced transfer L2 caches integrated onto
the processor core and run at the same clock speed as the processor core.
Two processor connectors are standard on the system board to support installation
of a second processor. High-speed, 1333 MHz DDR3 RDIMMs are optimized for 1333
MHz processor-to-memory subsystem performance. The System x3400 M2 servers
use the Intel Tylersburg DP chipset 36D to maximize throughput from processor to
memory, and system I/O buses.
