Server. A #9844 can be used in a #5088. It cannot be ordered with or on a
#5088.
A bus adapter to provide the HSL interface to the system is included. Select one
of the following options:
#9876 - Base Optical Bus Adapter (replacement for #9886)
#9877 - Base HSL-2 Bus Adapter (replacement for #9887)
#9886 - Base Optical Bus Adapter to specify two optical HSL ports
#9887 - Base HSL-2 Bus Adapter to specify two copper HSL-2 ports
One or two cables must be ordered to attach to the HSL or HSL-2 ports. When
ordering cables to connect to the HSL interface, optical HSL, copper HSL, copper
HSL-2, or copper HSL to HSL-2 cables are required. An HSL loop uses all optical
or all copper ports and cables. A copper loop can intermix I/O towers and units
with copper HSL and copper HSL-2 ports. Select the appropriate cable based on
the type of HSL ports to which it is being attached, and the cable length required.
Copper HSL to HSL-2 (HSL on one end and HSL-2 on the other end)
– #1474 - 6m HSL to HSL-2 Cable
– #1475 - 10m HSL to HSL-2 Cable
Copper HSL-2 (HSL-2 on both ends of the cable)
– #1482 - 3.5m HSL-2 Cable
– #1483 - 10m HSL-2 Cable
– #1485 - 15m HSL-2 Cable
Optical HSL
– #1470 - 6m HSL Optical Cable
– #1471 - 30m HSL Optical Cable
– #1472 - 100m HSL Optical Cable
– #1473 - 250m HSL Optical Cable
For each I/O tower or unit, select one SPCN cable. A list of the supported SPCN
cables is shown in the table on page 299.
A maximum of one per #5074, #5094, #9079, or #9094 is allowed.
This feature requires OS/400 V5R2, plus PTFs. Refer to Informational APAR
